September 15th Newsletter


Dear Parents and Guardians,

In reading this week, we will be continuing to work on sequencing a story.  As you read with your child, remember to ask your child what happens in the beginning, middle, and end of the story.  Our chunk of the week will be the short sound of as in it and bit.  Our class has been working hard to choose appropriately leveled books to read.  The children are learning to choose books with a purpose and topics that interest them.  They are also encouraged to choose a book that they are able to comprehend and read a majority of the words correctly without help.

We will be starting writers workshop this week.  In writers workshop the children will be able to choose what they want to write about.  Writers workshop is a lot of fun for the children because they are able to write about all of the things that they love and the things they are interested in.

We will be working in math on the elements that make up a calendar, counting objects correctly, comparing quantities, and using tally marks.  Please look for Home Link 1.8 and an addition practice sheet to come home this week.

  • Please remember to send a healthy snack with your child everyday.
  • Curriculum Night is tomorrow night from 5:30 to 6:30
