Last week, we went through the alphabet checking for which letters we can “feel” using our teeth, tongue, or lips, and which letters we “can’t feel.” After sorting all the letters, we discovered that each group has a name! Vowels and Consonants. We learned that vowels are like the glue of words. We looked back at some of our decodable words and noticed that ALL of them had a vowel in the middle. We also looked at our names to count how many vowels we have. We learned a song to help us remember.
To the tune of BINGO:
There are some kids who know their vowels and this is what they sing, oh!
A E I O U, A E I O U, A E I O U and this is what they sing, oh!

Don’t forget, the 100th day of school is coming up!! To help us visualize what 100 looks like, I am asking that each child decorate a hat with 100 items on it.
Keep in mind that if school is cancelled due to weather conditions between now and then, our 100th day (and celebrations) will be delayed a day.
