Agenda for the week

Reading/writing  We are learning to write by drawing a picture and labeling it.  We are learning to stretch out our words and write down the sounds we hear. Please help your child to listen for the beginning sounds of the words when they are writing at home. Our letter of the week is K k. We are learning to identify the letter, write it and learn it’s sound. We are learning how to do Daily 5. We are practicing read to self, word work, work on writing, listen to reading and read to someone. Please read to your child everyday. We are learning how to retell a familiar story.

We learned that there are three ways to read a book. 1) read the words 2) read the pictures 3) retell the story using their own words.

We will work in small group instruction during our Daily 5 time.

Math   We are working on counting and classifying.

Social  Studies  We are learning about needs and wants.

Science We are learning about weather and climates.

Snack

Snacks should be healthy to provide the children with energy for their day. Please send a simple snack such as fruit, vegetables, cheese, and crackers. Please do not send candy as a snack. Juice and milk are not allowed in our classroom. Please do not send any kind of juice box or milk with your child for snack time. The children may have the juice or milk for lunch in the cafeteria.

Home folder

Please make sure to empty the green folders each night! It is very difficult and time consuming to locate important notes when the folder is full of papers from the day before. Remember to initial the communication log each day.

Here is our letter song for the week:
