We have been busy learning about letter W this week in class. The kids have been brainstorming words that begin with W and have been hunting through the classroom to find how many W's they can find on walls. They are doing super! In math we have been working at writing numbers 0-20. This is a difficult skill and we need lots of practice and repetition for mastery. We have also been enjoying picture books about fall. Ask your kindergartner to tell you about the signs they see that show fall has arrived.
This is just a reminder that today will be the last day to order from Scholastic before the holidays. The next order will not come home until January. If you were planning on ordering books for gifts...do so today.
Our classroom is in need of ELMER'S glue sticks and baby wipes. If you are able to donate either of those items...THANKS a bunch!
Some of the students have brought home their "Book in a Bag". This is our reading program that all students will participate in. If your child has not received a bag yet, don't worry. I am staggering the students and starting the reading process with each as appropriate. If your child has a bag please read with them nightly. I will try my best to return a new book the day they bring it back, but sometimes things get crazy (like today) and I do not get all books returned. This is an exciting endeavor for your child so please make the reading process enjoyable for them. We want to foster a love for reading at their young age!
Tomorrow there is no school. What a welcomed break for all. Happy Veteran's Day and thank you to those who have fought for our freedom!
