Thanks for your support!

Library- We will exchange our library book on Thursday as there is no school Friday this week. Be sure to have someone read you your book throughout the week. We will return our book the following Friday so you will be able to sign out a new one.Thanks!

Homework- This week students will have a book to read called Who am I ? We have been working on the word am in class and the students are starting to see it more in print and attempting to use it in writing. Read the book each night and sign the reading log when you read. Students should print their own name, please. Students should point to each word as they read to ensure they are reading only that number of words in the sentence. Be sure to stop reading at the period. The Kinders are excited to be bringing a book home to share with their family. Please complete the 2 printing pages in the homework book. We are tracing the lower case letters of the alphabet on teh first page and students then must record these lowercase letters in alphabetical order on the second page. Please use a pencil when printing. Thanks. Students sometimes need a little extra help forming these letters properley.Return your book on Thursday, this week. Thanks!

If your child would like this meal please sign and return the red slip that was sent home to school by Thursday Nov.28th.
