What are We Learning
Literacy
We will learn about the letter K and have a letter review. We will meet Kao the Kangaroo with the letter sound and animal movement. We will also talk about other words that start with K and write letters to Santa.
Math
The children will count kites and match to the correct number. We will also match shapes with Santa and sort elves and ornaments with tweezers.
Physical
For Fine Motor, we will unlock locks with keys, trace ornaments, and do Christmas puzzles. For Gross Motor, we will do a Kangaroo Hop on letter K and a Reindeer boot camp to see if we would be able to be one of Santa’s Reindeer.
Science
The children will make key impressions in play dough and make shapes with gingerbread scented play dough.
Social/Emotional
We will graph if the children have ever flown a kite, go on a Candy Cane Hunt, and have a Book Exchange during our Christmas Party.
