We have been so busy learning letters and their sounds! So far we have learned about the upper case M, K, S, P, F, T, L, Z, V, X, B & W.

You can help practice sounds at home! Emphasizing letter sounds heard throughout the day will help students to tune into those sounds.

You can also go on scavenger hunts for certain letters! An exciting game to get children engaged!

Reminders:

• Since the weather is changing, please send in a cold weather change of clothes for your child and I will send home the change of clothes I currently have.

• Please leave little toys and/or jewelry at home. This is a distraction in the classroom.

• Please empty the Thursday folder, sign the paper in the front, and return it on Friday. Be sure to look at these papers! Many times there are papers to fill out and return to school

This has been such a fabulous start to the school year! Thank you so much for making your child’s first year in school a fun and easy one!

We are learning everyone’s names, and the children are becoming friends and learning to work together here in the classroom.

The children are earning hole punches in their Hero cards for being safe, responsible, ready, and polite. When all 10 stars are punched they have earned a trip to the prize box. They are being very successful at earning hole punches!

I am so proud of all your little ones and I hope you are too!

Application Activities

Application activities will be coming home for you to complete with your child. Here are the procedures. The folder has a calendar of activities to complete. Most of the materials you need to complete the activities are provided. Sign on the date of every activity you and your child complete and send it back in at the end of the month. Your child will receive punches in their hero card towards earning a prize. Thank you in advance for working with your child and playing an active part in their education. Later this month, I will also be sending home learning logs each Friday for your child to show/explain what we learned at school during the week. Please take time to allow your child to share and have a discussion about how the information is helpful. Please remember to return the learning log each Monday.

Cold Weather

It’s that time of year where it’s starting to get a little chilly!

Please make sure your child has an appropriate coat or jacket.

We will be going outside every day!

We will be going to the library for book exchange every Wednesday!

I hope you read and enjoy your child’s library book with them.

Please make sure the library book comes back to school every Wednesday! It’s helpful to keep the book in your child’s backpack every night. If the book doesn’t come back, a new one can not be checked out.

Library Book Exchange!
