We have a big favor
to ask…if you are the last one out through the gate after the school day
starts, will you please CLOSE the gate behind you? Thank you!
Here’s what’s coming up for this week…
·
Our theme this MONTH is APPLES, and our new word
wall word is “is.” (Sorry, I made a
mistake last week. Our new word wall
word last week was “the”.) So NOW, we
know the following High Frequency Words: I, a, like, the, see & is.
·
Parent volunteers have started!!!! If you have signed up to
come in to volunteer for center time, please COME IN! We would love to have our volunteers come from 8:15 – 10 am for
the morning session, and 11:45-1:15 pm for the afternoon session. Please check in with the office and get your
volunteer badge, and come in through our back doors! Thank you!!!!!!
·
New Volunteer Training will
be held Tuesday September 10th starting at 8:45 in the
MPR. MCA will train parents on
operating copy machines and other equipment.
They will also discuss Room Parent duties. Any one who wants to volunteer in Kindergarten is welcome to
attend.
·
All of Kindergarten will be having our
annual Apple Day Festival on Thursday, Sept.25th. This is a fun day where
each class travels from 401, to 402, then outside, doing different fun apple
activities. There will be two sessions,
one in the am and one in the pm, and it will take place during our center
time. We will need parent volunteers to
help us run and manage the centers. If
you’re available to come in, please let your teacher know. Thank you!
·
Our Homework this week continues to be
handwriting! Please reinforce the
letter formation of letters a-f. Please
refer to the handwriting sheet from our Back to School Night for our phrasing. It really helps students to hear the same
wording at home as they do from us in the classroom.
·
Writing—We have already
jumped right into writing every day! We
are expecting your child to know the words “I, see, the & like.” Please encourage them to write those every
day. You can even start writing simple
sentences such as, “I like ____.” “ I
see a _____.” Or “The _____ is _____.” You can stretch out the sounds of the
unfamiliar word or draw a picture.
Daily writing practice helps tremendously!
·
LIBRARY has started!!! We want to clarify any
confusion about library books. The kids
get to “keep” their library books for the whole week. We just ask that you send them back by Monday or Tuesday
so that we can return them to the library by Tuesday afternoon and be
ready for check out Wed. morning! Your
child is never expected to return a library book on their own!! There will be a library return bucket
outside in the mornings so the kids can return their library books whenever
they are done with them!
·
JUMP HIGHWAY! Our MCA along with Jump Highway is having a
fundraiser for Nelda Mundy on Friday, Sept. 12th from
5:30-8:30pm. There will be pizza
available to buy and fun to be had by all!
MCA members have been outside selling tickets at the beginning and end
of the school day. Come out and jump
with us!
Thank you again for all that you do at home to
support your child’s learning. We
appreciate all that you do! Please feel
free to email your child’s teacher with any concerns or questions! Please do not hit reply to this email.
Thank you!!
