• Writing—Our writing job is the same all month. We are still writing using SOUND words. We will be doing our monthly show-off writing this week!!! Please have your child write at least two sentences about the sounds you hear. You can go for another walk, tell us about the sounds you hear in your house, on the way to school, whatever you like. “On the way to school I heard a garbage truck. It went beep beep beep. It was very loud and rumbly.” (in Kindergarten writing of course)

• Reading Eggs!! We do expect your child to be using it at least one night a week as part of their homework. Your child’s username is taped inside their folder.

• REMINDER Please be sure that your child returns their book bag in their folder everyday. Thank you!
