We finished up the week with…

READING-I  Can  can  all students should know how to spell and write.

We made a book today titled I Can.   It is in their Book Box, to be read during Read To Self time.

WRITING-Journals  They were to write their own sentence using “I  can ______.”  Thinking of their own idea was the first step!

MATH-We played a game with the number 8.  Ask them about it.  We played the same game yesterday using the number 7.  Both days we had the same winner-Aya Chami!!  We also finished Unit 1 in the Math Book.  We are busy in Kindergarten 🙂

I explained the Pizza Hut Book-It Reading that they will be doing at home, beginning Oct. 1.  I decided to wait until next week to send home the October Calendar Reading Log.  (It has owls on it.)

Last year I started a Science focus and, to help with turning my students into Scientists, I had them each bring in one of Dad’s (or uncle, Grandpa’s) white t-shirts that will become their “Lab Coats.” Afterall, scientists do wear lab coats!  I have safety glasses for them.  We won’t be using them for a few weeks but I want to be prepared.  Thank you.

Next week…

READING-Our reading theme for the next 3 weeks will be “My Family and Me.”  I will be starting Reading Groups.

WRITING-Our letter for the week is M  m.

Our word for the week is We    we.

Look for papers to come home using these letters/words.  Have your child read his work to you.

MATH-We will begin Unit 2.  We’ll talk review basic shapes (circle, triangle, square, rectangle) and review patterns.

Looking ahead…

Wednesday is a LATE START.  For those buying their lunch, I will take their order on Tuesday.  Check the menu for daily choice.
