Friday, September 12th

Happy Friday everyone,

This week the students have been reviewing some letters and numbers.  We are currently working on printing our letters both in uppercase and lowercase.  We have also been practicing our numbers by counting to 100 by ones, fives, and tens.  In addition, the students have been practicing how to spell the number words.  These concepts have also been reinforced in our morning message.  Each day, the students will be looking at a message that needs to be edited.  This week, we have been looking at using uppercase and lowercase letters, number words, the date, and the vowel pair "ee".  As stated in previous posts, the month of September is a time for review and to ensure the rules and routines are in place.  This week, we introduced a new routine in the morning called Bell Work. Ask your child what they are to do during this time.  Your children will be coming home with their poetry book today with two new poems to read and enjoy.  Don't forget to bring back the duotang on Monday.  I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
