Updates and Announcements

Happy Wednesday!

As the weather gets cold, please be sure to send your child in with the proper attire for recess. They do go outside each day after lunch. If your child cannot zip their jacket, please practice this at home, I am not with them on recess to ensure their jackets are zipped.

Sight word sticker books- please keep these in your child’s sight word bag. We are very fortunate to have WONDERFUL moms that are able to come in each week and help the class with their reading and phonics skills. The sight word booklets can be practiced at home but myself and the sight word moms will take care of all stamping and writing of the words with your child in class 🙂 As your child masters a booklet, they will be given the next booklet (old booklets will stay in their bag for review). Once they have finished recognition through 2nd grade- we will go back and begin mastering the spelling of each word.

Kindergarten

  • Spelling words will come home on the cover of the next homework packet. You will  be given 9 words to practice and there will be one word that we call an “application word” that the students will have to spell without practicing at home. The application word is to test their understanding of the word family and not having them rely on memorization. Their spelling booklets will come home on Mondays and should be sign and returned on Tuesdays.
  • Science tests were given on Tuesday 1 on 1, the test will come home later this week with a stamp that say sign and return- please sign their test letting me know you have seen it and return it in their blue folder.
  • Math test will begin next week also and will cover +0 (4+0, 3+0, etc)

1st Grade

  • Math test is on Friday
  • Science test will be Thursday or Friday (this is a continuation from card marking 1- light and sound)
