Week One!

We had a great first week together!

We have 8 friends in our classroom:

Fisher
Gavin
Jace
Jackson

Kiaya
Mallory
Sarah
Tatum


This week we learned about classroom rules.  You will notice the sheet that comes home nightly that your child will color in according to how their day went.  Please keep this sheet in your child's folder until Friday after school.  I will put a new one in each Monday.

PLEASE send in a snack for the class if you would like your child to have a snack each day.  If no snack is sent in by Tuesday, your child will not receive snack.

Homework will be starting on Tuesday.  You will find your child's homework in the green folder in their backpack.  Please sign each night you complete homework.  Although it is not mandatory to complete homework, it will accelerate your child's readiness to read. 


This week:

Letter: Mm
Sight Words: My, me, make, must
Science: Color words
Religion: Practice blessing ourselves & Our Father prayer


We will also begin Kid Writing this week.  Kid Writing is a guided approach for beginner writers.  Children are encouraged to write whatever sounds they hear in a word, whether they are correct or not.  Writing will be very structured with me providing the majority of the sentence and children generating a word or two on their own.  After they are done writing they draw a picture to match their writing.  I will then go around to each child and work one-on-one with them on their writing.  This is called underwriting.


No pictures this week on our blog as I wait to make sure everyone turned in their permission slip to have their picture on the blog.

Have a great week!
