Here are a few things happening this week:

*  In Literacy, we will be working on the letters G g and H h.  So many great words begin with these letters, such as, gorilla, gum, Gretna Green, garden, game, honey, horse, happy, handsome, and hands.  Show and Tell will be on Friday this week so have some fun hunting for something that begins with the letter G g or the letter H h.

*  In Math, we will be starting Numbers 0 to 5. Practice counting to 5 forwards and backwards and see how you make out.
