In Math we’ll continue to learn about shapes (circles, triangles, rectangles, and squares.) Our essential question will be “How can shapes be named and described?”
In Reading, we’ll move on to the next reading story, “We Are So Proud.” Our essential question will be “How do school children work and play together?” We will discuss the literary element, setting. We will continue to practice Sight Words. Be sure to watch your child’s folder to see if they are moving on to the next word list or if they need to continue with their current list! Sight Words will be tested again on Friday, October 2.
Thank you to all of the parents that sent in an apple today! We will continue to talk about Johnny Appleseed and learn lots of interesting facts about him. We will sample different kinds of apples and then graph our favorites. On Friday, we’ll use all of the apples that students brought in and work together to make applesauce!
The School Store opened today. Kindergarteners may only shop on Mondays. Students do NOT come to the classroom before shopping so it’s important that you explain to your child where their money is and that they need to stop before coming to our room. Most items are priced from .25 to $2, at the most.
Some students still do not know their 4 digit numbers! These numbers are used for lunch, library, computer class, etc. It is very important that your child learn their number! Every child’s number is on the front of the folder. Please practice at home!
September Reading Logs are due on Thursday, October 1st. There will also be October Reading Logs in your child’s folder on Thursday. Any students who read 15 or more books this month will receive a small prize and a punch on their AR card.
Now that the weather has been getting cooler, please make sure that your child is dressing appropriate for outside recess!
