Thankful Newsletter & other things (Week 13)
Hello Families,
I would like to take a moment and give thanks to all of you! I am so grateful to work in a district where education comes first and where parents truly care about their child’s future. I receive so many “thank you” notes and or cards throughout the week and I just want you to all know I see them and I read them. Those small gestures of “thanks” really gives me satisfaction in knowing that this is where I am meant to be! I am thankful for my students and families at Haigh Elementary!
During the break there will be no homework:) Please help your child catch up on letters/sounds, counting, identifying numbers to 20 and sight word list (highlighted words), RAZ kids, reading eggs/math seeds; Whatever they may need to work on:)
Other:
- We finished our unit on Turkeys by making our Thankful Turkeys for the classroom. The kids worked really hard these last two weeks and their work shows.
- Heads up: spelling tests start the week of December 3rd. Homework will reflect the 10 spelling words we are focusing on each week. Our spelling tests will generally take place every Friday. Each test, for the whole year, is taken in 1 booklet. I will grade the tests over the weekend and send the booklet home with your child the following Monday for you to view. Please look through the test on Monday (to see how your child did), sign on the parent signature line and send the booklet back in their green folder on Tuesday. Please make sure that the booklet comes back every Tuesday so I can collect them to distribute again on Friday for the following test. If for some reason your child loses the booklet, you will be responsible for making them another spelling booklet. Remember: your child will have to spell and write each word in the booklet. When you practice the words, please make sure your child is forming each letter correctly. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated!
- December 3rd will also start Module 3 in Eureka math!
I hope you all enjoy your break with loved ones and you all have the time to reflect what you may be thankful for <3. See you all back on Monday, November 26th.
