September Sounds are FUN!

We have been having a LOT of fun in September!  In our speech sessions we have been focusing on initial and final consonants.

One of our favorite lessons was focused on the story "I Went Walking" where we focused on final /t/ sounds and marking final consonants in words.  We sang our "MaT Man" song and drew pictures of Mat Man to incorporate early handwriting strokes of horizontal, vertical, and circular songs.




 

Ms. Lorraine then asked each student what they like to eaT and the students drew pictures to go with their answers which helped us work on another preschool foundation to draw pictures to go with stories we tell. 
 
To finish up "I Went Walking" the students got to crawl in the dark through a play tunnel.  At the end they looked for a sound card with a lantern and told their friends, "I wenT crawling and I found a ...."


Another week we focused on initial sounds and read "Wheels on the Bus."  The students got to paint a school bus picture.  They LOVED painting!!



Thank you again for sharing your children with us.  Ms. Lorraine and I love seeing them every week!  We will meet the weeks of September 23rd, 30th and October 7th.  Our preschool will be closed the weeks of October 14th and 21st for Fall Break! 

Please return the Yankee Candle packets by September 30 with orders if you choose to place one.  This is the only student fundraiser for the Brownsburg Education Foundation for the year.  It usually raises at least $40,000 which is turned back to the schools to support our students!  I have been blessed to receive grants in the past as well. 

Wishing you well!

Ms. Sarah and Ms. Lorraine
