Week of October 25th

To celebrate Halloween we will be doing a little party on Friday, October 29th in the afternoon. If you would like to bring in a little treat for our class that would be great! We will be having a fun day on Friday doing lots of Halloween activities. Students will not be able to wear costumes to school that day.
The school Harvest Festival will be this Friday, October 29th on our campus. This is such a fun night! You can wear a costume, play some games and win lots of candy! Please come out and have a great time!
It is starting to get cold outside and that means it is sweater season! Sweaters and sweatshirts that are acceptable in the classroom are solid red, navy blue or white. If your student wears a different color not in dress code they may wear it outside but not in the classroom. Please label your student’s sweater or jacket. If it goes missing it is much easier to find if it is labeled with a first and last name.
This week homework will go home today, Monday, and is due on Friday. We are working on writing words that we are learning to sound out in phonics. Please make sure that your student can sound out the words and tell you what they are. Blending can be a tough skill for some students so be patient with your child. Some fun games to play to help with this are letter Bingo or a game we call “Flyhunter.”
Also please count with your student every night. Our next goal to count to without skipping any numbers is 50. Please also review what the teen numbers look like, these are often a challenge for students.
