Lean on Me


 Talk about a friend.  Describe that person.  Tell me about a time you helped your friend or your friend helped you.

Rain on me


In this song, "on" is a preposition that shows where the rain falls.  Practice prepositions.

Do you like rain?  My daughter likes to walk in the rain.  I don't like to walk in the rain, but I like to eat. If there's no rain for a long time, there's no fresh food.

Did you ever lose power in a storm?  What did you do?  What do you usually do when it rains?

Happy Autumn!



Activity: Put Autumn vocabulary words in alphabetical (ABC) order

Unscramble (change the letter order to make)the Autumn Vocabulary words (same ones you put in ABC order)




What's your favorite season?  Why?  My husband's favorite season is Fall because he likes to go hiking and camping.  Do you like hiking or camping?  Tell me about it!

NO SCHOOL ON Monday, September 21-- It's Yom Kippur!

Fairfax County Schools are off for a religious holiday.  I think this Children's book has a nice explanation for our level, but some of the activities are hard to see.  Is it easy for you to understand?


Do you celebrate Yom Kippur?  If yes, what are you doing today?

If not, do you have any traditions that involve fasting?  How often do you fast?  Do you have any traditions that involve saying, "I'm sorry?"  Do you have any traditions that involve praying?

I'm going to love you...

 



Are you making plans to do something with someone (or a pet that) you love?  What are you going to do? When are you going to do it?
