There was a Noodle name Nyle...


Who liked to nap for a while.
He wears a scarf around his neck
He's neat and right in style!

Hopefully your child has been coming home and singing, or at least telling you about our alphafriends. They even have the same beginning sound as the letter they help us to remember. It is always a lot of fun on Monday/Tuesday when I get to introduce our new alphafriend/letter for the week.
This week we are learning about Nyle Noodle and/or the letter Nn. However, believe it or not, we have already met 6 alphafriends and spent at least a week on the letter each of them represent.
Just in case you were wondering....here are the remaining 5.
s=Sammy Seal
m=Mimi Mouse
r=Reggie Rooster
t=Tiggy Tiger
b=Benny Bear
Your child should be able to recognize each of these letters (upper and lowercase), say the sound the letter makes, and write them as well! So practice, practice, practice. Have your child teach you the songs and sing along with them! I am sure you will enjoy them as much as we do or even more! (Be careful! They are catchy and you will find yourself singing them at work, doing dishes or just driving in the car! :)) Isn't Kindergarten the best!?!?!?!??!
