October 19th

I hope everyone had a great break! This week we are focusing on the letter I and its sound. We will also be introducing the sight words to, you. Please make sure you are practicing these at home. We will also be learning about the -an family. Our words are can, man, fan, can, ran. Students need to be able to look at these words, know what they say, and spell them. Everyone did a great job on the -at family last week so I am sure this week will be the same.

In math we will be practicing numbers through 15. I will really be focusing on showing me the number of objects using different items from our classroom. You can do your part at home by asking them to show you the different quantities of items.

Homework packets will go home tomorrow. I forgot the copies at my other school so cannot send them home today as originally planned. Sorry for the delay.

Thank you to everyone who came to parent teacher conferences. If you missed your conference and would like to schedule a new time, please let me know. I am only available in the mornings on the Ranch campus.

For those of you who will be starting the reading series, these books will start coming home Monday the 25th. If you have any questions about the reading series please let me know!

If you asked for the sight word flashcards to be email out, I will hopefully be doing that at the end of the day.

Friday, October 29th is going to be our fall harvest party. Students are welcome to dress up for this party. I am going to need lots of help to make sure this party runs smoothly. I will be sending home a note about the party tomorrow as well as an item we need donated for the party. Please mark on that paper if you will be able to help at the party.

As always, if you have any questions please email me! Have a great week.
