Friday, August 23, 2019
Yay, it's Friday! I hope everyone had a great week. Thank you so much for letting me spend my birthday with your sweet kids. They made sure I felt extra special and we got to enjoy some treats together! 

My day started with flowers from each kid!

Then after lunch we had one of my favorite snacks, chips & salsa! And what's a fiesta without churros?!


Thanks Mrs. Naak for throwing an awesome fiesta! 

Harper got to enjoy some of my birthday treats too!


If you were unable to make it to Curriculum Night a packet of papers were sent home in your child's green folder. If you have any questions let me know and save the date for a follow-up Curriculum  Q&A on September 11th from 6:00-7:30. 

Here's what's going on next week:

Spalding: This week we will continue to work on clock letters  o, s, qu,and add two line letters, b, e. As a reminder, students should be working with their phonogram cards each night. Please continue to support your child during homework by ensuring they are using the correct pencil grip and making sure they are forming their phonograms correctly. 

Sight Words: in, is, you, that, it. A yellow sight word card will be sent home with your child in the next week. Please use this to practice at home and keep in your child’s backpack in their yellow book bag. 

Literature: We will explore Little Red Riding Hood this week. Students will work on recalling the story and working on story elements: Title, Setting, Characters, Problem, Solution. We will read a Chinese and an African version of the story then compare them to the original. Our poem for the week is A Dillar, A Dollar.

Math: This week, we will begin to introduce numbers 1-5. Students will count to five and recognize the numbers. They will be asked to recognize the number and also count out items for a specific number.  

Science:  Students will be able to identify which part of their bodies corresponds with each of the 5 senses.  This will include sharing 2 parts of the eye and how they’re used, giving 2 facts about their sense of hearing and telling 2 ways our bodies use the sense of touch.  Students will discover that we use our senses to learn about the world around us.

Here's a look at fun from this week!
