News: The
students have been busy the first 2 weeks of school doing beginning reading
and writing activities and many other fun jobs. Last week we learned to
spell the color red, we did some fun activities around the story “ The
Enormous Watermelon”, we “guestimated” the number of licorice in a jar and
completed our Shape Family book. Be looking for this book to come home.
Your child also brought home their first Story Bit. If you did not return
the Ziploc bag and response page please return it tomorrow. Keep the Story
Bit in the Story Bit Box at home. More will be coming home soon.
Morning
Routine: When you drop your child off each day, it is very important for you
to give a reassuring hug
and say your goodbyes
as at the door. The children need to then come in and do their morning
routine by themselves. You can give them a quick reminder, then let them
take yesterdays folder out of their backpack and put it in my basket, next
take the folder out of their cubby and put it in their backpack, last hang
their backpack up. I promise they will get the routine soon. They will be so
proud of themselves and so will you!
Homework:
Homework folders will not be coming home until conference time in October. I
will be sending home some work pages for practice. Return on Friday.
September
Read Aloud: Please take time reading with your child each night. Record
your reading on the Recording Sheet/Reading Log. Try to read 20 books for
the month of September.
September
Skills Awards will be coming home this week if your child has mastered all
the skills.
Sharing Bag:
The Sharing Bag began going home last week. The students will take turns
taking it home then bringing it back to school the next day with something to
share. Follow the directions on the card attached to the bag.
ABC Club:
When your child masters all the letter names (upper and lower case) they
will earn an ABC Ribbon. The students will also be able to earn a sound
ribbon when they mastered all the letter sounds. We practice all the letters
and
Sounds in some
way each day. To show mastery your child will need to answer in 3 seconds
and give the correct answer each time they are tested. Some students will be
bringing home their ABC Award this week.
