Hello Families,

Hope you had an enjoyable weekend!  Thanks to Zoey’s mom for making playdough this month for our class.  The students love using it to practice making their names, letters and words.  Take a look!

 

Here is what you need to know for this week!

• Monday:  Letter books will go home today!  We are working on the letters N and n this week.  Students are doing an excellent job of remembering to have them completed by Friday.  We have gym today.
• Tuesday:  make sure that your child has returned their library book today if they haven’t already done so.  We have music and art today.
• Wednesday: We will go to music today.
• Friday:  Field trip permission slips and money are due today.  Letter books are due today.

Book bags:

Sometime this week your child will be given their own book bag  with a book to take home and practice.  Please make sure your child reads the book to you several times .  They need to return the book bag each school day.  These books are from our school book room and do not personally belong to me so extra care is need.  Reinforce good book handling care at home, such as turning the pages carefully and keeping the books out of the hands of younger siblings.  As the class gets to be more independent during Daily 5 time, I will be seeing your child more often.  For right now, our small group time is short and snappy.  🙂

Raz-Kids:

The students are coming to school very excited about using Raz-Kids at home.  If you have any problems using the website, please let me know so I can help.

Halloween:

The talk of Halloween has already spread in our classroom.  Your child will be able to wear their Halloween costume to school on Friday, October 31st.  In years past, we have a short Kindergarten Halloween Parade at 9:00 am in the hallway.  Afterwards we will have our Halloween party until 11:00 a.m.  This way, we can safely be out of our costumes before lunch and gym.  At Lindbergh, kindergartners are the only students allowed to wear their costumes to school, so we feel pretty special.  More information will be sent home shortly.

PBIS Reward

Just a reminder that students need to stay on green 80 percent of the time.  For the month of October, if they move their clip 5 or more times, they will not be invited to attend the reward.  In the month of September, we had 21 students attend the reward.  Remind your child to make good choices each day in school.

 

Until next time….

Ms. Wright
