Looking Ahead

All homework is due Monday! Please remember to return field trip permission slips and money as soon as possible.

This week we learned the word I. Next week we will practice the word like.

Next week Friday we will have our first math test! We have been practicing the numbers 0-5 everyday. Next Friday your child will be tested on:

  • writing and recognizing numbers to 5
  • telling what number is one more up to 5
  • counting objects up to 5

Please continue to practice counting and writing numbers at home!

Five Frames

We are learning to use five frames to help us count. A five frame looks like this:

Five frames will be on tonight’s math homework. Please have your child return their completed homework to school tomorrow.

Book Bags

Book bags are coming home today! Please remember to practice the contents of the bag EVERY NIGHT and return it to school EVERY DAY! It is very important that you and your child take very good care of the contents of the bag. Sometimes the bag will have a dry erase marker in it. Please make sure the cover is on correctly when your child is done practicing. When we send home books to practice, please keep the books away from younger siblings that may rip or bend the book.

 

Handwriting Homework

Handwriting homework

Your child has been writing daily in the classroom. We practice writing during writer’s workshop (drawing and labeling the picture) and practicing letter formation. Please practice writing your child’s name with them over the weekend. Their name should start with a capital letter and continue with lower case letters.

Example: Sarah (NOT SARAH)
