This has been an awesome first full week of Fall!!!! We have not only been practicing more letters and sounds, but we have been learning to rhyme and count syllable (word parts) in words. We have also been learning about our 5 senses! Use our five senses to learn about the world around us! We see with our eyes, smell with our nose, taste with our tongue, touch with our hands, and hear with our ears! We have been investigating apples! We have learned lots of information about apples and have even done some informational writing about this yummy fruit! We have also learned to write the number 0-5!

Thank you for all you do!!!!
Have a lovely week 5 of school!!! Happy Fall everyone!
I am so excited to start another week of school with my incredible little friends! Take a look at some of the fun ways we have been learning at Salina!
Last week I introduced letters Aa, Bb, Cc, Dd, and Ee! We also began writing in our notebooks as we practiced following the expectations of writing time! We also got to “read” with our books in our work boxes! The children even went “book shopping”! We have been practicing fluency with counting to five “the math way”…. (pinky first to represent a number line). We also learned about the importance of rules and talked about our country’s Constitution! We made our own classroom constitution that has three main rules! Be KIND, Be SAFE, and Be RESPONSIBLE! We have been practicing what good listeners do and sound like when we are listening to a story being read aloud!
In addition, to all of this learning, we have been learning that school is FUN and SAFE! Families, I adore your children already! I am so blessed to your child’s teacher! PLEASE feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns! We are a family together working for your child’s best!
Take a look at the pictures below of some of the super awesome things we have been doing!
We have been learning how to form letters! We are using play dough to form the letter Ee.

We are off to such a wonderful start to the 2021-22 school year! I am so blessed and excited to be your child’s teacher! We will be learning kindergarten academic concepts such as letters/sounds, sight words, reading and writing, math, and much, much more! In addition to these important concepts, we will be learning about how to manage our emotions and get along with our new friends. We will play, laugh, learn….but most importantly, we will love! We will love Salina School, our friends, our teachers, and especially learning! Salina is such an amazing place for your child to feel truly valued and safe as they begin their elementary school journey!
Please never hesitate to reach out to me! Please subscribe to this blog or send me and email with our preferred email address.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all you do!
Tomorrow your child will have independent work to do in the morning on Schoology. The teachers along with the 5th grade families will be recognizing the amazing job the 5th graders did this year!
