This Week’s News:
Our base story for this week is “Time To Sleep”, and our focus letter/sound is Nn. We will also be working on being a polite listener, verbs in sentences, and “recall and re-tell”. In science, we begin our study of ladybugs and will have live ladybugs in our science center to observe. We will be revisiting some of the basics in writing and learning about common nouns and proper nouns.
Notes and Reminders:
Next Monday is Mrs. Nichols’ last day with us as a student teacher. She’s done a great job, and we’ve had lots of fun! She will be back at Gullett a lot to sub - and back in our room for DEAR time and when I have to be out. So we will see her a lot! For recipe Friday we will make ladybug snacks using crackers, strawberry cream cheese, and raisins.
Homework:
Continue reading with your child for 15 minutes a night and initialing in the folder. I’m glad the children are enjoying using the readers at home. They are doing a good job reading aloud in class! This weeks’ homework came home in the folder. It covers word wall words and phonics/rhyming skills. It will be due by next Monday, November 16.
Upcoming Events:
The Thanksgiving lunch is on November 19th. The lunch schedule is revised that day - according to the latest schedule, our lunch begins at 11:16 that day. If you did not purchase tickets you can still come and eat with your child and have pumpkin pie!
Thanks!
