Hello Parents,

This week’s scholastic reader is called Trees, Colorful Trees. We will be learning about the letter Ee, oval, the color orange and the number five. Mathematically, we will be exploring shapes in the Real World, names shapes, creating shapes. We will be reading several books including: Bear’s Busy Family, The Three Little Pigs, Daddy Calls Me Man and various seasonal books.
