Happy Friday and welcome to the long weekend! Just friendly reminder, there is NO SCHOOL on Monday 09/02. Today in your child's green folder they got their first scholastic book order. Feel free to order using the paper flyer or you can go online to https://clubs.scholastic.com and use our class code: NBNHM. On Tuesday your child will get their yellow book bag with their sight word list one inside. Please review this each night in addition to homework and keep in your child's backpack. 

Here's a look at next week:

Spalding: We continue to explore our first 26 phonograms.  This week we will work on : h, i, j, k. Homework will continue to introduce single phonograms by tracing them then writing them three times each.  Students should be reminded to say the sound of the letters while writing them each time. We will have a our first phonogram assessment on Friday, please review a, c, d, f, g with your child. We will say the sound and students will be expected to write down the correct phonogram.
  
Sight Words: he, was, for, on

Literature: The story for this week will be the folktale biography of Johnny Appleseed.   We talk about which parts of the stories are fact and which parts are fiction, observe how Johnny showed the virtue of citizenship, and even make our own pots to wear on our head just like he did!  Our poem this week will be Tommy. 

Math: This week in math we will continue to work on numbers 1-5. We will incorporate graphs and counting objects to 5. Students will represent the numbers in writing using the correct Spalding number formation. An assessment will be taken on Friday.

Science:  Using their five senses, students will give facts about apples.  They will discover how the senses of taste and smell work together, and create a craft that illustrates how we experience our sense of taste.  Students will put the lifecycle of an apple in order.

We got to celebrate two birthdays this week, thank your Mrs. Cross for helping us celebrate Kristyanna! 

And thank you Mrs. Jacobson for helping us celebrate Ryder!
