President's Day, the Olympics, and a Review Week

...oh, yeah, and mid-winter break. On paper, next week is an eventful one. Do you have anything special planned for next week? I hope you also find fun ways to sneak in some review! We are 21 letter-sounds in: O, B, X, S, A, I, F, L, P, J, M, H, U, T, R, W, N, K, D, G, V. With Monday a holiday and the week off from school, let's pause for some review.

Easing back in with a Review Week

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and time spent with family. Since we took the week off last week to celebrate and count the blessings in our lives, this week we will ease back into our letter-sound of the week project with a review week. Of the 14 letters we have highlighted so far, we have covered 4 vowels (each with a short and a long sound) and 10 consonant sounds.

Review Week #2

O, B, X, S, A, I, F, L, P, J, M, H, and U. Whew! We are halfway through the alphabet. And now it is November. This coming Monday we pay tribute to the men and women who have served, or are serving, our country. And then in a couple of weeks we take time to give thanks for all the goodness, big and small, in our lives. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Winter Solstice… “The Holidays”. Busy, busy, busy. So, now through the beginning of 2014 (!) we will have several weeks of review with a few new letters/sounds sprinkled in. This coming week? A review week! You will also notice an over-riding theme all month of gratitude/Thanksgiving (with special focus on turkeys one week...but more on that in my next post).

Reviewing O, B, X, S

We are four letters in: O, B, X, and S. Which brings us to Week #5; a week with a holiday (Labor Day), and for some no therapy. School starts this week for many area schools. Seems like a good time to pause and review.
