Review of our week:

I have been doing some assessing this week to see where your child is in reading. Each day, we interview our leader and each child then writes something about the leader and draws a picture.  When we finish each student will have a book they have made with a page about each person in our class.  I am very excited to see how much each child has improved in their writing abilities.  In math we have been working on ways to make 10.  

Next Week’s Leaders:

Monday, August 31 – Jaime

Tuesday, September 1– Kaydence

Wednesday, September 2– Maddie

Thursday, September 3 – Mikale

Friday, September 4 – Nash

Reading Records:

I have included the reading record for September. The reading record is due by the date at the bottom.  Please, take the time to help your child with their reading.  They need to color an apple for each day they read for 20 minutes.  I tell them to keep it in a safe place and to color an apple as soon as they are finished reading.  Thanks

Review of Our Week:

We have had a great week getting to know each other and learning procedures.  We have also done some fun activities this week.  Next week we will be starting into our regular schedule with I-Ready Math and our CKLA reading program.

Leader and Snacks:

Each day we will have a leader and I would like that leader to bring a healthy snack to share with the class.  They are still adjusting to being back in school and they get hungry during the day.  Please send 24 snacks. Please send pre-packaged snack without nuts. If you can’t send a snack, just let me know.  If your child would like to bring their own snack and not eat the class snack, they are welcome to do that.
