Happy Fall! I can't believe we are in the last week of September......time flies when you have a GREAT class. I know you hear that from me each week.....but it is the absolute truth!
In the Classroom:
Theme: All About Me/5 Senses
Math: Shapes and counting objects 1-50 (making a yummy cereal necklace). By the time your child gets home, he/she may only have a few pieces left :)
Social Studies Johnny Appleseed
Handwriting/Letter/Phonics: Hh
Writing Workshop: Continue the writing process (experimenting with writing: writing words, labels, sentences, using the word wall and spelling phonetically). Please keep in mind that reading and writing are DEVELOPMENTAL SKILLS......we have all levels in the classroom.
Words of the Week: orange, white and yellow
Are you working with your child on the words??????

Nuts and Bolts:
Please note that conferences are coming up October 22-26. I will conduct conferences starting at 12:40 and end at 3:00 (20 minute slots). If you have a certain day/time that you can attend, please let me know (via email). I suggest giving me your top 3 days/times (example choice 1: Monday at 12:40, choice 2 Wednesday 2:00 and choice 3: anytime Thursday works for me). I will do my best to give you on of your top 3 choices :) Thanks in advance for clearing your busy schedule to meet with me! We have a very important subject to talk about :)
