Welcome to Fall of 2023.
We have begun school with a bang.
This year we have a new reading curriculum called AMPLIFY from the Science of
Reading Foundation. We chose it from among several options and have
implemented it this fall.
One of the main differences in Amplify is that we begin with the focus Skills on
letter sounds and not their names. This is to facilitate early reading processes. The
second part of Amplify is the Knowledge portion that focuses on story components.
We have finished Mother Goose rhymes, the 5 senses, and are moving onto simple
folktales. The curriculum has many pages for home connections and you
will see those in the student's folders.
Math this year will continue to use the BRIDGES curriculum. This focuses on
common core concepts and lots of hands-on activities which are important for five
and six year olds.
Please reach out with any questions. I check my email several times a day to
provide hopefully quick response times for any concern. Let the excitement begin!
Bienvenido al otoño de 2023.
Hemos empezado el colegio con fuerza.
Este año tenemos un nuevo plan de estudios de lectura llamado
AMPLIFY de la Science of Reading Foundation. Lo elegimos entre
varias opciones y lo implementamos este otoño.
Una de las principales diferencias en Amplify es que comenzamos
centrándonos en los sonidos de las letras y no en sus nombres.
Esto es para facilitar los procesos de lectura temprana. La
segunda parte de Amplify es la parte de Conocimiento que se centra
en los componentes de la historia. Hemos terminado las rimas
de Mamá Oca, los 5 sentidos y estamos pasando a cuentos populares
sencillos. El plan de estudios tiene muchas páginas para conexiones
con el hogar y las verá en las carpetas de los estudiantes.
Este año, Matemáticas seguirá utilizando el plan de estudios
BRIDGES. Se centra en conceptos básicos comunes y en muchas actividades
prácticas que son importantes para niños de cinco y seis años.

varias veces al día para poder responder rápidamente a cualquier
inquietud. ¡Que comience la emoción!
