Week of October 5th-9th

Ositos Class

Miss Amparo & Ms. Luz

Week of October 5^th – October 9^th

Theme of the Week: “Mis Sentimientos /My Feelings”

Dear Ositos Parents,

This week we will focus on our feelings and emotions. Emotional expression and emotional regulations are two important processes in the early childhood years. All areas of development are supported when parents and teachers give children words to name their emotions and feelings; labeling feelings lets children know that their experiences are normal, and gives them a way to think and talk about what is happening.

Our objectives by areas this week, are:

Socio-emotional: Recognize and manage emotions through representative play.

Cognitive: Classify objects.

Psychomotor: Jump, run to the left/right and forward/backward, turn around, do somersaults.

Language: Use his/her visual memory with rhymes.

Literacy Activity: Learn the letter “Ee.”

 

Tips:

·         Please give your children, a special hug, special kiss, special attention, to let them know that they are the most important thing in the world for you every day.

·         Make your feelings obvious for children to see: your expression and gestures will help your children notice differences in emotions.

·         Help your children name the way they are feeling and manage their intense emotions.

Homework of the week: 

Make sure to take home your child’s notebook this Friday to reinforce the activities that we are working in class. Please bring them back on Monday.

Remember, kids are more successful in school when parents take an active interest in their homework — it shows kids that what they do is important.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to BENJAMIN BROWN & QUINCY LEERBERG, who will turn five in October, we wish them a very special day full of love and surprises.
