Week of September 27th

Our garden unit is over and we have started on our new unit, fairy tales! We have been reading some of the classics, Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and The Princess and the Pea. I will be sending home some of the old center work on Monday that can stay home and turn into refrigerator art! If there is unfinished work in the pile that is ok, you can work on it at home if you like but it is not due as homework.
We have been practicing writing our numbers and writing the letters h, t, and g. Please work on this with your student at home! I will send a homework sheet home on Tuesday for the students to practice their numbers and letters. It will be due back on Thursday. We are slowly working up to homework packets.
This week we will also be learning about the letter “T” and “P”. How to write it correctly and what sound the letter makes. I would like to start a picture wall of items that you and your student might find that start with the letter “T” or “P”. Please send in any pictures or items that you think would be a good addition to our wall!
If you would like to come and volunteer in class, or join us for fieldtrips throughout the year, you need to get your fingerprints done in the front office. I would like to recommend doing it through the state though there is a cost. This gives you a fingerprint clearance card that can be used for 7 years!
If anyone is able to help out we need some hot laminating sheets for our classroom. You can find them at Office Max or Office Depot and they usually come in packages of 50 sheets. If you are able to help I would really appreciate it!
I am looking forward to a fun and exciting week!
