September 16-20
This week we will be starting our story for Reading, "Miss Bindergarten Takes a Field Trip with Kindergarten".  We will be talking about people in communities and will be learning how to classify and categorize.  Continue to read at home and practice the high frequency words; I, am,the, and little; practice rhyming and counting syllables in words and identifying the letters from Aa-Zz.   

For Math we will continue working on identifying shapes.

Sight Words are assessed once a week.  There are flash cards in your child’s folder that you should be using to review the words nightly.  Some of the class are still on List 1.   When your child moves on to a new list, continue to study the previous words along with the new list. There will be “review” tests given throughout the year to make sure students know all the words and not just the list that they are working on that week. 

The Kindergarten Fall Festival will be held on Thursday, October 10th.  We are asking that each child please donate $3.00 for the Fall Festival. Please send it all donations by Tuesday, October 9th if you haven’t done so already!  Students will be permitted to wear gym clothes on Fall Festival Day no matter what their special is. 

AR (accelerated reader) lists are due on Monday, October 1.  Each child had to read 15 books to receive the Pizza Hut certificate.  A new October paper will be sent home on October 1.

Hearing screenings will be given this week to all kindergarteners.

Friday, September 20 is a $1.00 Dress Down Day.
