Jeremy's blog

I like school because I like to play with my friends on the playground. I like playing the numberline game. I learned about Hanukah in Ms. Mitchell's class.

Pencils and Erasers

THANK you SO much to everyone sending in the pencils, erasers, and timers!!!

Kaitlyn's Blog

My mom was at music class today. I had fun with my mom. She saw me doing very well. I was singing, "Jingle Bells."

Scholastic Book Orders

Don't forget orders are due by Friday!! :0)

General Information

I will be sending a paper newsletter home shortly, but there is a lot going on, so I thought I'd take a minute to post it here.

1. Snow, Snacks & Songs (our Christmas Celebration,) is coming soon. Each classroom is responsible for donating 6 dozen cookies. I don't need a donation from everyone, but if you are willing, please let me know.

2. This week in class the kids will be learning about Christmas traditions in other countries. We learned about St. Lucia Day today (Sweden.)

3. We are in desperate need of pencils and pink erasers if you can help.

4. I'm going to start having one child a day blog here. They can write whatever they like as long as it relates to the classroom. I'd love it if you would respond to their posts so that we can read them during class time.

Thanks again for everything you do!

Sight Words for the Week

We do sight words in a lot of ways, but just so you know, our Language Arts program only introduces one new word a week for Kindergarten. I always add review words for workshops, but the words posted in this post will be just the new words. :0)

Parents - Welcome!

I've created this blog so that you can keep up with what's going on each day in class. There are also links to videos that relate to current teaching, and links to great game websites. It is a work in progress. If you have ideas, or things you'd like me to add, please let me know. Have fun!
