Update 11/27

Welcome Back!

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends! 

Our essential question this week in reading is,  What tools do people use to do their jobs?  We will be discussing different jobs that people have in our community. We will be reading stories about the tools and equipment workers use. 

We have learned all of our letters! Please continue to practice letters and sounds at home.  In phonics, we will continue to work on letter sounds, tapping out CVC words (ex: mop, mat, hug) and begin to work on creating word families (ex: mop, top, pop, stop).  

Sight Word: you

We will continue on 5 groups and addition in Math, as well as review of shapes and learning about hexagons.  We are quickly wrapping up our 2nd unit and will be having our unit test towards the end of the week.

Specials: 
11/27 Enrichment

Homework:  iPads will be sent home again on Tech Tuesday.  You will find a new leveled book in your child's Wonders To Do list.  Please send iPads back charged on Wednesday in the blue bag.  You can choose to keep the charger at home if you wish!

Hope you have a great week!

Our fall parade will be on October 31st at 8:00am.  Students can come to school in costume.  Our fall party will follow the parade from 8:40-9:40am.  We will have a regular school day following the party.

Options for clothing for the rest of the day:

1. If comfortable, your child can stay in their costume

2. If you are attending the party, you can help your child change into regular clothes after

3. Your child can change into regular clothes after the party, but they must be able to put on these clothes independently.  (I will help tie shoes!)

Homework:

We will be sending home iPads on Monday!  Each student will have directions in their iPad bag about charging the iPad and how to connect to Wifi at home.  IPads will need to return to school the next day each time they are sent home. This is very important, as we use our iPads as a learning tool each day.

Monday iPad homework – connect to wifi at home & have your child show you their favorite app!
