November!

Well, here we are into November already! Once again I will remind parents to send mitts, hats and warm coats (even ski pants) with their students to school. I wore my hat, gloves, and ski pants along with my jacket today and was toasty warm in the wind.
This month we in Kindergarten are concentrating on rhyming and teddy bears. We'll even have a teddy bear picnic during the last week of the month. Trick words this week are he and she. The sounds we are learning are the two oo sounds (as in cook and cool), y and x. Please remember to send the yellow duotang and sound scribbler back to school each day, and the blue homework duotang on Thursday. Your support in these ventures make a big difference in your child's success in school. Each time he/she reads the words and/or says the sounds made by each letter it makes them more confident in their learning.
The first of the next years Kindergarten meetings is this Thursday, at 6pm. Your future Kindergarten student is to come with you, as well as your partner or spouse. All are welcome to help make this transition as smooth as possible.
