Weekly Update Oct.14-18,2019
Important information: There will be a paid dress down day on Friday, October, 18th. If your child brings in a dollar donation, they may wear a Spartan shirt with jeans or sweats. If they do not bring in a donation, they must be in regular dress code bottoms with a Spartan t-shirt or a regular dress code shirt.

We are not beginning a new story this week. We are continuing, “Pig in a Wig”, so there will not be a new spelling list tonight. Continue to practice the H.F.W. list each night. (Blue notebook) The text book will come home on Wednesday. Please have the book covered at this time. If you were unable to get a brown bag/book cover, please let me know so I can make arrangements to get the book covered.

In this week’s Friday Folder, you will find a list of sound chunks that we have been practicing daily. I will highlight the sounds that your child will need to practice at home. Five minutes of review each night should get them where they need to be for continued success.

We are continuing Unit 2 in math which is working on addition sums to 10. Use the spring math sheets, that come home in the Friday Folder, as extra practice. You can make-up worksheets using those facts and time your child for two minutes, just like we do in class. It’s quick and they really enjoy trying to beat the clock.

I’ll be contacting the parents/guardians on my PTO approved list this week, to find out if anyone will be available next Friday afternoon (October 25th) to help with a project. I have all the supplies; I just need 4 individuals to guide the children through some estimating activities involving their own personal pumpkin. The approximate time is from 1:30 until dismissal. Everyone who has their clearances on file and is PTO approved, may come in to help for the Halloween Party on the 31st. Please send me a note if you will be able to make it, so I may plan accordingly.
