Organizing Idea:
- Phonics > foundational literacy is supported by understanding relationships between sounds in oral language and the letters that represent them
Learning Intention:
- Children make connections between letters and sounds in words
I Can:
- identify letters by characteristics (straight/curved lines, height, shape)
- recognize upper and lower case letters by name
- make connections between letters and sounds in words
We are always working on developing our literacy skills and this week we focused on looking closely at the letters of the alphabet according to some distinguishable characteristics such as height (sky, grass, dirt letters), shape, as well as straight and curved lines.
