The end of September is approaching, oh my! We are continuing to become acquainted with our classroom, teachers, classmates, and our daily routines. As we continue each week we are learning more and more, take a look!

Joke of the Week: What day of the week are twins born?

Language Arts- This week we are starting the first unit in our Journeys Language Arts book. Each day we open with identifying sounds, rhyming, and counting syllables. This week we will review letters Kk, Ll, Mm, Nn, and Oo. Our topic for the week is families, how they are different, the same, near, far, and big or small. The two super exciting sight words we are learning this week are, ā€œIā€ and “go”! We are also learning the importance of our first names and using an uppercase letter for the first letter and lowercase letters for the rest of our name (please make sure your child writes an uppercase letter ONLY as the first letter in his/her name, all the rest lowercase!). Going forward we will be correcting letters that are written as uppercase when it should be lowercase or lowercase when it should be uppercase. With learning our names we will also be discussing nouns for people! Ex. Dylan, girl, boy, dentist, coach, etc.

We will have our first language arts assessment this Friday! It will consist of letter names, rhyming words, the sight word I, and nouns for people.

Math- We will continue with Chapter 1 this week, we are learning to count, write, and represent numbers 0 to 5. The children are enjoying this chapter as we use counter chips, and students as counters, and manipulatives.

Jesus Time- We will continue to read stories from Ms. Vollono’s children Bible, watch videos and complete activities to retell the stories we read.

Scholastic- We will complete our scholastic about community workers & essential workers and discuss their jobs and how they help and impact our communities and lives!

Looking forward to another great week!

Answer: Tuesday!! (Two!)
