August 29-Sept. 2

Here's the plan for this week:

Literacy
We will be reading a couple stories, Now I'm Big and Mice Squeak, We Speak. We will be making a book about what the kids were like when they were little and how they are different now that they are 'big'. But I need your help! I would like to have a picture of your child when he or she was a baby. If you could send it to school one day this week I will scan it and get it back to you asap!

We will also be previewing the letters Kk through Oo and meeting an alphafriend to go along with that letter. You could ask your child to do the alphafriend chant for the letters we've learned!

In writing we have been drawing stories of things that really happened to us and sharing them with the class. We will also do a writing test on Friday! (Don't worry, it's just a pre-assessment to see how much they grow throughout the year

Math
This week we will be looking at objects and seeing how they are alike and different, looking at and graphing numbers 1-10, and looking at shapes.

We will be having homework on Wednesday and Friday this week. Please have your child's homework buddy ready for his/her job!

Your child also brought home a consent form for you to sign so that I can do some class projects for a class that I am taking to get my Master's degree. I would appreciate you signing that and returning it as soon as possible! Thanks!

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call or email me!
