Kindergarten!
October 25th-29th...Hope everyone had a great weekend!
Wednesday and Thursday are conferences! I cannot wait to meet you and discuss how your child is doing in Kindergarten!
I apologize for anyone who ordered from Scholastic Book Club in September. They have been in contact with me to let me know like everything else in the world, they are delayed in filling the order and shipping. I will let you know if it is possible to order again from them for Christmas.
Please return the homework book and the word ring every Monday. I will send them back home with the new weeks work. If anyone is having difficulty with the work, please let me know.
HOMEWORK... The assignment this week is the Gg, Jj, Ee and Oo pages. The first page for every letter is following the correct path of motion to write the capital and lower case letter correctly. Please take the time to make sure your child is forming the letters slowly and correctly. The flip side has three squares. The children are to think of three things that start with the letter they are concentrating on. They will draw and color the three things that they thought of themselves in the squares.They then TRY to spell the word of the object they drew beside the picture. Please DO NOT help your child spell the object. Have them say it slowly to hear all of the sounds in their word. Homework is to be done in pencil.
Reading booklets...The reading booklets that come home are optional homework. They are a great practice and review of the letters we covered and the sight words that we have seen. If they bring them back with the five whistles on the back colored in, they will recieve a punch on their punch card. When the punchcard is full they can pick a prize coupon!
Word rings... These are the words that we have already been working on. Your child will be tested on them each week and they will get a sticker by the ones they know. When they have mastered each page (color) they will recieve the coordinating color sticker gumball in their paper gumball machine. There will be a big celebration at the end of the year when we see how many gumballs we can get!

Our Classroom:Thank you for all the supplies and donations already this year! There is always a need in Kindergarten for extras- whether it be for the classroom, or for a project. We are putting together individual indoor recess buckets for when they are unable to go outside, keeping germ sharing to a minimum. I will be adding things so they can keep busy during that time. If you think of something that is not on the list and are willing to share the idea and/or donate please do not hesitate!
Below is our class's Amazon wishlist for the classroom. Any donations are appreciated but not expected.
