Here’s what’s coming up for next week…
·
Next Monday, the 18th, is a
holiday for Martin Luther King Jr. observance.
Enjoy your three-day weekend!
· Sharing- Next week’s
letter is “Ii”. Please make sure your
child writes three clues about his/her share that s/he can read
independently. If your child’s share day falls on a holiday/no school day,
please have them bring his/her share on another day of that week.
· 100th Day of School Donations-
We have been in school almost 100 days, wow! We will be having special centers
on January 25th to
celebrate. We would appreciate it if
you could donate the following items- Nilla Wafers, Raisins, Goldfish, Cheez
Its, M&Ms (plain), Skittles, Mini Marshmallows, Chocolate Chips, Pretzels,
and Teddy Grahams. Please send in your donation item before January 25th.
· Read to Succeed- Please remember
that your child’s completed and signed Read to Succeed reading log is due by February
12th. Students who
participate will earn a one day admission ticket to Six Flags.
· Reading Eggs- Thank you to those
who have been utilizing this terrific phonics and reading program. Teachers are
able to check who has logged on, the number of times, and for how long.
Unfortunately, there are many students who haven’t done so. Next week, teachers
will send home a letter with students who would most benefit from Reading
Eggs. They will now be required
to use Reading Eggs as part of their weekly homework.
· Fieldtrip- We will be visiting
Paradise Valley Retirement again in March. In order to accommodate all of us
better, we will be going on two different days. The AM Kinder classes will
be going on March 8th and the PM Kinder classes on March 10th. Please mark your calendars.

Writing—Our writing job
is the same all month!!! For the month
of January, we are writing about the way people look. Please have your child write at least
two sentences about the way someone in your family looks. For example, “My mom lives with me in my house. She has brown, curly hair, brown eyes, and
big red lips.” (in Kindergarten writing
of course)
·
Our theme for next week is Martin Luther
King Jr. Our new word wall word is “saw.” We know the following High Frequency
Words: I, a, am, like, the, see, is, can, my, and, have, go, to, has, you,
feel, we, look, are, & said. Please
encourage your child to use these words in their writing every day!!!!
·
Kindergarten could use some fun and
colorful PONY beads (the fat ones with the big hole in the center) to use for
beading on Fun Fridays! If you would
like to donate some, our kids would greatly appreciate it!
Go Noodle is a fun, free program
we have been using in our classrooms and many students want to use it at
home. It’s like indoor PE. Just go to gonoodle.com and the Channels we
have used are Moose Tube and Zumba.
There are lots of other areas to explore there as well. Don’t forget about Starfall.com-they really
love it!
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 with any concerns or questions!
Thank you!!
