Week of October 1-5, 2018

Reading:  The title of this week’s story is “Smash! Crash!”  The characters in this fantasy are vehicles that interact with each other. This selection will encourage students to discuss activities they do with their friends. Nouns will be introduced this week. The amazing words presented are: signals, dud, proper, pirates, perfect, and fabulous. The sight words spotlighted are: a and to.

 Phonics: We are beginning to focus on individual letters and sounds. The first sound we will learn is /m/, which is made by letter Mm. We will practice initial sounds, ending sounds, blending, and discriminating words that contain the same sound.

Math: Our first topic will be tested this week. The test will cover how to read write, and count numbers 0-10. The next math topic introduces shapes. Classifying and sorting a variety of shapes will be the focus. 

Reminders:

-September book logs are now due. Students who have read 15 or more books will receive a treat. October Book Logs will be placed in folders on the first of the month.

-There will be a PTO meeting on Monday, October 1st at 6:30pm.

-It is important to practice sight words daily. Many students are advancing quickly. These students are seeing the benefits of knowing the words. They feel more confident when participating in reading activities containing their sight words.

-The PTO will be hosting a Fall Festival for Kindergarten on Friday, October 26th. An individual $3.00 donation was requested in order to provide a fun-filled day for your child. Please send in your donation if you have not already done so. Thank you for the donations we have received!

- Friday, October 5th is an Act 80 day. Students will be dismissed at 12:00.

-Monday, October 8th is an In-Service Day. There will be no school for students.

-Next week is Homecoming Spirit Week. Please refer to the information that was sent home for daily dress themes.

Have a marvelous week!
