UPCOMING DATES:
October 15th - End of 1st 9 weeks
October 16th - Teacher Planning day - NO SCHOOL
Happy fall to everyone!! Hope that we start to get some cooler weather in the near future. We are off to a great start to our 6th week of school and wanted to update you on what has been happening in our classroom.
Literacy Update:
This week we have been focusing on the letters N, I, and E. Each letter will be introduced in Fundations for phonics during our large group time. Small group lessons using these letters will be conducted during literacy center time. We learned the White color song on Tuesday. During writing we are continuing to write about our numerous student job positions in the classroom. The students will have a very full book when they are finished.
Social Studies/Science Update: The students have been enjoying learning about what and who makes up a community. This week we are focusing on our families as a part of the community. They will create their homes and draw who lives there and we will do a graphing activity related to our families. We are also very excited to get started next week on our Senses theme for Science!

Other News: The students have started to use the computer during Literacy Center time and they are all so excited to play the learning games.
Friday sing started two weeks ago and the students have enjoyed getting together as a school family on Friday mornings to listen to and participate in the performances. Students will have the opportunity to perform as a class or individually if they choose to. If your student wants to perform please let us know and we will sign them up! On the first Friday sing our class performed the 'I'm Doing Fine-Kindergarten' song and they were spectacular!!
Wishing you well,
Ms. Claire and Ms. Heidi
