I guess I missed WEEK 19 last week - my apologies. Although, I did get lots done last week, including testing all of my students to find their reading level. As a follow-up, the Kindergarten classes are joining with Grades One and Two in Reading Club, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 1:15-1:45. The students are grouped with other students in the same level as they are, books are read and activities are done to strengthen their skills. Something different and fun!
This week we are discussing the letter Dd. Our tricky words last week were there, they, and can. This week's tricky words are no, go, see, and yes.
Please remember to send your child with snowpants and all the rigging - the days are a bit warmer now, compared to last week, and we are once again going out for recesses.

WEEK 18
This week we will be covering the letter Bb and words that begin with it. I seem to be a week ahead on my tricky words in coordination with the homework, so we will review this week and not have new words until next week. If your child brings the abc bucket home, help him/her to choose a few items that begin with Bb to share with the class.
Last week we celebrated Callie's 6th birthday, making her the oldest in our class.
Reading bags will be coming home each night, so please read with your child each night as well. If he/she is finding it difficult, point out picture clues, beginning sounds, and sight words they should know. You can take turns reading with them as well, you one page, your child the next, etc. All of this practice will help your child become a confident reader! Thanks for your participation in this great learning activity.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Well, here we are in WEEK 17!
This week we will be starting talking about the letters of the alphabet (this week it's the letter Aa), one letter each week, with lots of activities to reinforce our memories. We will also be starting a new unit in Math, called "Exploring Geometry and Measurement". Look for notes to come home on Wednesday regarding both Math and Language Arts.
Our tricky words this week are said, here, and it. We will also be doing lots more writing in the new year, practicing using all of the sounds we learned last year!
Book orders are coming home on Wednesday, and are due back to me on Monday, Janyary 14th.
