Sight Words

Sight Words

In our journals each day we begin by writing our date on the top and our name below our date. We also practice copying/writing a small sentence and drawing a picture to go with it. The sight words that we have learned so far are: I, see, a, like, my. Practice writing sentences at home and incorporate these new sight words.

We are having such a great time in Kindergarten. Your children are making excellent progress and learning so much everyday. We are studying trees in our Social Science lessons. We are learning that trees have 4 major parts: roots, trunk, branches, and leaves. We have almost makde it through the entire alphabet in our reading lessons. We will be starting letter sounds soon. In math, we are still sorting by color, shape, and size. We have also started recognizing and learning numbers 0-10. We have been playing a game called roll and record and grab and count. You can practice at home by counting and sorting any objects.

Don't forget to send ice cream money each week (preferably by the month $5.00).
Have a great rest of the week and never hesitate to call if you need anything!

Thanks,
Mrs. Wilson

I hope that you all received the book fair form in your child's backpack yesterday. Our book fair officially begins today and will continue until September 14th.

Tuesday is grandparents day for Kindergarten. Please tell the grandparents to get here early. This will be a very crowded event. Our regular lunchtime is at 10:50, but we will begin going to lunch around 10:35. After lunch, the grandparents may take the children to the book fair if they would like to.

Don't forget to turn in the book order that was sent home in Monday folders if you are interested in purchasing any books for home.

Homework is due on Tuesday.

I hope you all have a great LONG weekend and be safe!

Love,
Mrs. Wilson
