Dear Parents,

Welcome to our class blog.  I will try to have a new blog posted every Thursday after 6:00 P.M.   Please let me know if you do not receive the messages.

This week we have been studying Mr.S with his super sock sound and All About Me.  Please help your child learn his/her birthdate, phone number, and address.

Next week we will meet Mr. F with his funny feet sound.  We will also be studying our five senses and how they help and protect us.  Our Words of the Week are AN and IS.  Hopefully you and your child are practicing the RED words from the list that I gave out at Open House.  We will assess the students on their knowledge of them in about 3 weeks.  We are also beginning a unit in math on patterning.

Here are several reminders:

-Tomorrow is Spirit Day so wear Garrison Mill shirts if you have them.  It is also a P.E. day.

-Tomorrow is Library so please return all books.

-Tomorrow is the end of the Sally Foster Sale.  Please turn in all orders.

-Tomorrow night is Movie Night with dinner @6:30 and movie @7:00.

-Please try to turn in your field trip money as soon as possible.

-Monday is Reading Night in the Media Center from 6-8:00 P.M.  Parents and children are encouraged to attend.

-Patriotic Day is Thursday, Sept. 11th.  Please wear red, white, and blue to honor our fallen citizens.

-On Mondays, please return a clean towel, the Poem and Song book, and the Kinder Keys folder.

We are sending home many books and booklets for the students to practice reading.  It is very important for them to gain confidence in their reading abilities with these little books.  Please give them the opportunity to "shine."

Have a FABULOUS week.

Sincerely,

Phyllis Nichols and Bonny Pearson
