Mrs. Wright's Class

We have made it through another busy week. Your kids are doing super and we are having a great time learning. This week we focused on the letters P & C. Over the long weekend quiz your child on whether or not they can recognize the letters/sounds for M,S,R,T,P,C and words that begin with each letter. This will be a good time to review. Next week in class we will be reviewing all the letters learned thus far and will add a new "surprise" letter to our line-up.

We are making progress on writing numbers 0-5. This is a skill that will come in time and after much practice. The more practice the better, so you can always work on writing the numbers at home too. We will continue our study on numbers throughout September and will be moving to numbers through 10 next week. During the month of September we will also be studying apples. We will be taste testing different types of apples, doing apple art and have some fun books to share with one another all about apples. Look for some fun projects to be coming home soon.

Well, I think we will all enjoy the 3 day break. I hope you find time to rest and enjoy the company of family and friends. See you back to school on Tuesday...we have more busy days ahead.
