Letras y Números
This week we introduced the letter X. The letter X typically makes the same sound in English and Spanish,. Sometimes we say the /s/ sound without any /k/ sound.
We worked with the number 15, quince, all week.
Count, count, count! Count your snack, socks, toys, flowers, etc.
Point out numbers that you see in books and when you are out and about.
The kiddos also enjoyed making multiplication fortune tellers for their 2s multiplication facts. They will be receiving their fortune teller for 3s, upon mastery of their 2s facts.
I sent home a math packet to be finished over spring break. Please have your child complete it and bring it back our first day back.
