I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend! I know I did! We packed in our 4 day week with lots of activities. Before I go over what we did, I would like to inform you of a schedule change.
OUR NATURE CENTER FIELD TRIP FOR THIS MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8 HAS BEEN CANCELED. I will reschedule it as soon as I can. I sent a note home with the students, but also wanted to post here just in case the note was misplaced. Thank you for your understanding!
Ok... here's what we did this week!
Reading:
- Finished reviewing our letters, sounds, short vowels and high frequency words.
- We sang silly songs to help us remember what our short vowel sounds are- ask them to sing one for you!
- We are getting ready for next week when we will have our first official spelling words and our first story!
- Please practice reading the blue high frequency word cards that go in the blue envelope with your child every night!
Math:
- Finished Topic 3 and took our first ever math quiz and test!
- Started Topic 4 today and will continue with that topic for the next couple weeks. We will be working on different addition and subtraction strategies.
- For reinforcement at home, start practicing math facts with flash cards every night.
- Soon we will be starting to take timed math fact "tests" to practice our facts.
Health:
- We talked about Safety this week and ways we can be safe at home, outside and at school.
- We also brainstormed careful and careless behaviors.
- Next week we will talk about feelings.
Don't forget.... the book fair is coming next week! Our browse date is Monday and our buy date is Wednesday. Also- Curriculum Night is on Thursday evening. I hope to see you all there!

Have a great weekend :)
