Parents,
Another week has come and gone! Time flies when you are having fun!!
Things to note:
· This will be the last week of letter practice, handwriting practice, and the letter books! Yeehaw!!!! I cannot wait to move on to bigger and better things!!! I know that kids are always ready to wrap this part of the year up, perhaps parents too?! This year I will be sending home the remaining 6 letters and the corresponding homework tonight! IT IS NOT DUE UNTIL FRIDAY!!! I know that doing this much work could be difficult during the week, so please do it at your convenience, but turn the 6 handwriting pages in to me on Friday. Your child may get to the handwriting practice homework before we review the letter in class, so please make sure that you help them to notice the arrows next to the letters and help them to make them correctly. Thanks! Letter books can also be completed at your leisure. Please note that math homework will still come home nightly. GOOD NEWS: NO LETTER HOMEWORK NEXT WEEK!!! =)
· I heard the turn-out for last week’s BINGO night was amazing. I wasn’t able to get there myself. But I will try to get there several times during the coming year! It really is a lot of fun. My own children LOVE it!!! Maybe we will see you at the next one!!
· SKATE NIGHT IS TONIGHT!!!!
· Book orders due this Friday! =)
· Birthday/Playdate Address List will be revised and sent home next week. Please get your info. in to me if you would like to be included in the updated version.
· The first High Frequency Word test was today! Great job everyone! Keep on practicing those words!!
· Spelling Lists and spelling tests will begin next week , Monday, Sept. 24th. Much more information to come.
· We had our Run for Education assembly last week for the upcoming run. Did you get the info.? Will your child be participating??? =) Let me know if you need more info.
