Week of January 13, 2014

Hello Families,

Hope you had a wonderful weekend.  Here is what you need to know for this week:

  • Letter Study:  G  g  Letter books will be sent home today and need to be returned by Friday.
  • Words of the Week:  she   said
  • Testing/assessments:  this week I will be finishing up  assessing your child in Social Studies.  I will be giving your child the District Writing Prompt, giving the Development Reading Assessment (DRA), as well as the DRA Word Analysis.  Therefore, I will not be seeing your child in his/her strategy groups and will not be putting new books in their book bag.  If you are looking for books at your child’s level, please try out Raz-kids on-line.  I have receive many positive comments about it.  If you need any help, feel free to email me.  Also, if you have the Raz-Kids app on your I-Pad, there is an update which has worked out some of the bugs.
  • Social Studies Project:  Today I am sending home a Time Line Project.  It is due on Thursday, January 23rd.  However, as soon as it is completed, please return it to school so your child can share with the class.  I showed an example today in class, so your child should have a good idea of what needs to be done.  Any questions, please feel free to email me.
  • Math Homelinks 4.2, 4.5 and 4.13 need to be completed and returned by Tuesday, January 21st.  Note:  For Homelink 4.2, after you play the game Top-It, have your child write how many games they play at home.
  • Dry Clothes- please make sure that your child has a complete extra set of clothes in his/her locker, including socks.  Things happen in Kindergarten and we need to be prepared!  🙂
  • Snowpants/Boots: We go outside for lunch recess almost everyday unless it is too cold.  Please make sure that your child comes to school with everything they need.  If they wear boots, please make sure they pack a pair of shoes!  Also, labeling your child’s clothes is a great idea.  Black snowpants are a pretty popular item around here and are not always easy to identify the owner.  Thanks for your help!

Have a great week!

Ms. Wright
