WEEK 12

Well, I missed all the children last week, being in Florida with my father-in-law in hospital.  It will be good to get back to them this morning!

The sounds we are covering this week are: "qu" (quack), "ou" (sound), and "oi" (noise).  Tricky words for the word wall are: be and was.

This week is "PINK WEEK" at school, with the emphasis on bullying - what it looks like, what it feels like,  what we can do to help people being bullied, and what we can do to help bullies stop bullying.  There will be videos shown each day, lots of discussion, and pink treats (bubble gum and pink mints), pink lemonade, pink jello, and pink bracelets.  Look for a pink pinkie today (nail polish on a fingernail).

Thursday night, November 22nd, from 6-7pm, the pre-K students and their parents are asked to come to the school for the first meeting with teachers and district staff.  The children will get a chance to do activities in the K-2 classrooms with their parents after the parents meet with district staff.
