Week 4

      Our sight words this week will be the, yes, & no.  Please be sure you are using the sight word activities in their homework folder to help them retain their words each week.  We will learn sight words at a quick pace and it becomes difficult to catch up if you fall too far behind.  Pinterest is also loaded with great sight word activities.  Please review the weekly assessment each week with your child, focusing on any areas where your child has errors, as these skills will be on the interim and report card.  It is important that we work together to strengthen any areas of weakness early.  
     We will be learning the letters and sounds for: Rr, Hh, and Nn.  Please review these letters and sounds at home.  We will be finishing our "all about the numbers" posters on Monday.  We will continue learning to identify the numerals zero to ten.  Students have also been practicing counting to 100.  A few students have already mastered this skill...Yeah!!!!!  We will be learning about reading and making maps.  Can your child make a map of their bedroom?  We will find out midweek!  We will also be learning about book parts.  Ask your child to sing you the song telling what authors and illustrators do for their job.  We are practicing reading 100 Book Challenge books in class.  We will be sending these home with your child after Open House.  
     Just a reminder that Goodies with Grandparents will be in the lunchroom from 7:00 to 7:30 Monday for kindergarteners.  Can't wait to see you there!
