I know everyone is SO thankful that Hurricane Florence stayed away from us! I hope that you were able to enjoy some reading with your sweet children over the Hurricane days. With that being said, it is now time to get back into the swing of things!
Open House is going to be Tuesday, September 18 at 6:00 P.M. If you aren’t able to make it, please let me know and I will get you the information that I cover at Open House. Also, if you aren’t able to make it and have any questions, please ask and I will do my very best to answer you. I am using the questions from the Getting to Know Your Child survey to guide my presentation. I promise to get you as much information as possible in the least amount of time.
Each week I will be sending a newsletter home. Each week, I will have it in your child’s Daily Folder (which you will get tomorrow night). This should give you a glimpse into our classroom each week, so you can know what objectives we are learning. Click the link for the newsletter: September 17 2018
The newsletter contains a section for sight words. These are words for you to practice with your child each week. Not only should he/she know how to spell them, but also write them. At home, practice finding the words in books and then have your child write the words in a sentence. Once your child can read it, locate it in a book, and write it correctly without help then you know he/she has mastered it and you can move onto the next word. You may find at the beginning that your child has mastered a lot, which is GREAT! Keep practicing the writing piece to ensure mastery.
I look forward to meeting many of you tomorrow night!
