happy hallooooweeeeeeen!
We have been busy busy around here. We did a mini unit on apples. We worked hard on our scissor skills and I think they are doing great! We cut out an apple and glued the apple puzzle back together. Another day we cut out number apples and matched them with number blocks on the apple tree. We told the story of a little red house with no windows and a star inside. Then cut open an apple to find the star inside. Today we measured each other to see how many apples we are tall. They liked that!
We have learned about letter v and we are working on the letter w. I also started sending homework. Thanks for everyone for your help with that. I will be sending home Baggie books soon!
As we are headed into cold and flu season I ask that you please remember to keep your student home if they are sick. We want to keep our classroom healthy. Thanks everyone for your understanding with me canceling school when I was sick. I did not want to pass that on. But I want to reassure you I have not canceled school like that before and hopefully we can keep a healthy class so I won't have to again.
I have sent home the November calendar make sure you get it out of their back pack. And don't forget that the Halloween party is Wednesday! Can't wait to see them all in their costumes!
Thanks for all you moms do!

our big big world.
October has been fun. we are learning all about our big big world. we learned about space, and our planet. then all the countries and that we live in America. We learned our Pledge of Allegiance. we learned about Utah, about our neighborhoods, our houses, and our families. today we learned about our phone numbers. I went over each of their phone numbers with them individually, but please make sure you go over their phone numbers and their address with them at home. Those are two of the things they need to know for kindergarten, and they are also one of the harder things for the kids to remember so repetition is important!
Thanks to all of you for coming to the pumpkin patch field trip! It was so much fun! We have been enjoying some fun Halloween songs! you should have your student sing them to you, they are great singers!
For Halloween we will be having a class party! Make sure your student is dressed in their costume! We will be "trick or treating" to each other and practicing safe trick or treating so send a treat with your student. it will be fun!
I will be sending home homework starting next week. please have your child do what they can on it and bring it back so they can get a sticker on their homework. i know some of them are not ready for homework, and that is okay. Just the act of taking it and bringing it back teaches them responsibility. So don't forget to check their backpacks.
And don't forget there will be NO SCHOOL tomorrow. Enjoy your day off.
Thanks!
