other letter, sing it quietly, loudly, or backwards.
NEWS
What a
wonderful group of students we have in our classes! We are getting into the routine of school and
adjusting to a schedule. Thank you for
your encouragement and support from home.
It makes such a difference in your child’s success at school!
It has been
exciting to see the growth of each child already! We will spend two days on each letter of the
alphabet. The first day we focus on the
letter, its sound and how to write it correctly. We are making an alphabet book that will come
home at the completion of our letter study.
The second day we learn a poem to put in our “Poetry Binders” and them
draw an object beginning with that letter/sound in our “I Can Draw It”
books.
We have also
been working on the numerals 1-5 and learning the sight words: me, see, I. Social skills and the importance of always
doing our best is also emphasized.
Our first
book order will come home on Monday, Sept. 10 in the homework folders. If you are interested in ordering books,
please send the money and the completed order forms back to school on Monday,
Sept. 17th. Please send one
check made out to Scholastic Books They
do not accept cash.
Kindergarten
is such an exciting year for learning! I
will send the Kindergarten Assessment results and the DIBELS (an assessment of
early literacy skills) with your child on Monday, Sept. 17th. Our reading aides will assess the students on
DIBELS next week.
It has been
a pleasure to get to know you and your child!!
Please feel free to call, e-mail, or write me a note with any questions
or concerns. Have a great week!!
