// Curriculum Update: Week of Jan. 14 //

This week  we focused on activities that help to develop our pre-literacy and pre-writing skills .  We reviewed  the Sandpaper Letter “b” with objects and traced the letter with two fingers  to reinforce the sound.  We also created our own Sandpaper Letter “b” in the art area to practice at home and build more confidence.  We also have started to practice tracing lines using a marker.  These activities require focus, concentration and a strong pincer grip.

We are excited to take our first field trip to see “The Hungry Caterpillar” playing at the theater of NJ.  To prepare our class for the field trip, we read the book “The Hungry Caterpillar” and we created caterpillar necklaces using different materials.  Please feel free to contact with any questions regarding the field trip!
