The class had a FANTASTIC time at the pep rally today. They showed that they are full of SPARTAN spirit! Good luck tonight to the Spartans vs. the Hurricanes!
We had an exciting week in Phonics this week… we read our first word! All of our students were so surprised that they can read all by themselves! In the upcoming week we will be learning the consonant “Hh” as in hat, hippo, and horse. We will have “Hat Day” on Friday, September 30th. Students are asked to wear a favorite hat, a funny hat, or even a homemade hat. Please feel free to be creative with this!
In Math we will identify, describe, and compare circles and rectangles. Students will also continue to practice numbers and will even count to 100 by 1’s.
In Reading, we will begin the story Julius. Our class will discuss how people and animals work and play together. We will continue to discuss characters, settings, sequence, and classifying. There will be 2 new sight words: a, to. We will also talk about the letter Mm and the sound it makes.

Everybody did a GREAT job with the All About Me posters! If your child didn’t bring theirs in yet please send it in next week. Every student really loved sharing them and we all loved learning about our classmates! Most of the class has come out of their “shell” and is making friends with each other. We were very happy to see that most of the class listed their classmates as their friends!!!
Students brought home their first Library book on Tuesday. These books need to come back to school on Day 5B (Tuesday) for Library class and then they’ll get new books to bring home.
Next week, we will be celebrating the birthday of Johnny Appleseed. We will be working on apple activities all week. In order to complete some of the projects we are asking that each child bring in ONE APPLE! The apple can be any color and size. On Friday we will use all the apples to make applesauce!
