This week well finish focusing on Bubba bear and on Thursday well move on to Catina cat. Well also start working on distinguishing left from right. See if you can incorporate the concept of left and right in your childs day. Such as asking him/her to put the fork on the left side of the plate, asking your child to show you their right foot when its time for shoes or helping him/her think about which hand they use to hold their toothbrush.

Please send in your childs box of eating the cookies in class (yum!) we will use these boxes for storing some small alphabet letter pieces. Look for the small red box of Barnums Animal cookies in the cookie aisle of your grocery store. Last year I found them at Safeway and Nob Hill, but let me know if you have trouble finding them. Have you asked your child to teach you Allie and Bubbas signals? They could probably show you more than that if you refer to the list from your welcome back packet. They sure are learning fast!
