Welcome October!

I cannot believe how quickly September has passed. Our first month of school has been incredibly busy! I am so proud of all of the students for learning our routines so quickly. They have gotten many compliments from other teachers in the building for their exceptional behavior. Great job boys and girls!

This month we have rapidly moved through a lot of academic skills. In math, the students have matched, sorted, subitized (determined "how many" without counting),and counted objects. In reading, we have learned the letters a-s. The students have learned the following sight words: I, am, the, little. We have studied the concepts of "character," "setting," and "sequencing."

September has been a wonderful month and I cannot wait to see what awaits us in October!

Open House

Wow! I was so glad to meet so many kindergarten families tonight at Open House. What a huge turnout! I am really looking forward to getting to know all of you throughout the year. See you next week!

Supplies

Hello all!

Just a note to say that you are welcome to bring your child's school supplies to Open House next week. Please put them in a bag with their name on it, so I can keep track of which things came from each student.

Also, there will be a "wish list" outside of my door of items that would be helpful for our classroom. Each item is listed seperately on a sheet of paper shaped like the globe. If you would like to contribute that item, simply take that paper with you. Thanks in advance!

Looking forward to seeing all of you next week!
