November Mommy School Focuses

November

Language
Reading - Book Orientation - the main part of this is having her hold the books and turn the pages when we have reading time, this introduces basic concepts about print
Writing - Write a Story - for this Angel Girl will have a pencil and will get to "write" a story, this introduces the idea that what I say I can write

Arts
Music – musical moods - this is done in a dance party, this is to introduce creative dancing and expression of emotions through movement
Art – Play Doh - this is to introduce more textures into our art exploration

Math
Number Sense - Adding 1+ 1 = 2 - this will just be using real objects to add to 1, this introduces beginning concepts of number sense that adding means more
Geometry – Object Permance - Hide and go seek with objects, this is something I think Angel Girl understands but I think it will be fun to play

Science/Social Studies
Science – Cause and Effect - mostly exploring what happens if we do something, haven't really thought of good things for this yet
Social Studies - Thanksgiving - reading about, getting dinner ready, preparing for the holiday

Physical Education
Physical - Kicking/Rolling - this is with a ball and working on controlling where the ball ends up
Social/Emotional - Emotions - giving Angel Girl words and signs to express her emotions more effectively
