September 16th 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 i 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 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.

Our room moms this year will be Courtney and Phoebe’s moms.  The room mom’s will be contacting you about future opportunities to chaperone field trips and volunteer to donate food or help with classroom parties.  Thank you in advance to our two room moms!

•  We are still looking for socks to use as erasers for our dry erase boards. 
• Please remember to send a healthy snack with your child everyday.
