week of October 27-.31

October 27, 2008

Hello Parents
The reason for this weekly letter and the blog is for you to be informed about what is going on in the classroom and for you to help your child at home. In addition to the family activities, you all should still be using the calendar for daily activities and your child should be reading the take home book every day. We are working on patterns this week, the letter “Gg”, number, shape and color recognition. We continue to review previous letters and sounds on a daily basis as well as rhyming and word families. We are reviewing our “popcorn” words: I, a, see, we, and, me, the, here, and is. I will give a short quiz on Friday.
Other important information:
o The field trip is Thursday October 30, 2008. Please send your child to school in their uniform, with a sack lunch and on time. Please remind your child of the rules and proper behavior in public.
o There will be NO Halloween party on Friday, Do not send your child to school in a costume or with candy!
o Please continue working with your child on a daily basis with handwriting, tying shoes and other skills as you see necessary.


We also have a new student in our class...Please welcome AJ to pre-K!!!!

Ms. Stephens
