Labeling

Today, we did a labeling lesson.  After talking about what labels are for, we labeled me :).  Then, as a class we labeled the parts of a teddy bear.  Tomorrow, we'll be labeling our own pictures!

Library on Thursday!

    Today we were excited to go to Library and get to take a library book home!  You may keep these books at home until next Thursday.  If you would like to return it sooner, we will return it to the Library sooner.  Usually we ask kids if they are done with their books (if we find it in their backpacks).  If they say yes, then we collect them and return them to the Library.

Reminder: Open House tomorrow Tuesday Sept. 16 at 6 pm!  We will meet in the Gym to start!

Reminder: Students will be bringing home at least $0.05 for selling their hats to the first graders today :).

Selling Caps :)

     Today we read "Caps for Sale."  In this story, a peddler tries to sell caps, but he is unable to do so.  So, he takes a nap.  When he wakes up, his caps have been stolen by monkeys living in the tree above where he's napping.  He then yells at them to get the hats back, but they just copy his movements.  So, when he throws his hat down in frustration, so do the monkeys.  He gets his caps back and goes about trying to sell more caps.

    In class we made caps to sell to first graders.  Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to go sell them to first graders so we will go on Monday.  So on Monday, your child will be bringing home some pennies they earned for selling their caps.  If you would like to help out and send in extra pennies, then the first graders can buy more than one cap and the K kids can earn more than $0.05.  Any caps that aren't sold, the kids will get to keep.

Menu Change for Tuesday and Wednesday (9/9 and 9/10)!

Tuesday 9/9's Lunch will be Chicken & Cheese Quesadilla, rice, fruit, and veggies.

Wednesday 9/10's Lunch will be turkey, mashed potatoes, bread, fruit, and veggies.

Homework - Using Scissors this Week! (and other Homework procedures)

      We've noticed a lot of friends need help using scissors.  In school, we've talked about using scissors to cut paper only.  We also talked about and modeled how to put scissors away safely (by holding your hand over the closed scissors until you put it away).  Please return the scissors once your child has cut apart the homework paper.  I sent the paper home Monday attached to the newsletter.  Obviously the cut paper can stay home :), but please return the scissors to school once you are done with the homework.  The letter T paper is due Monday.  Have your child practice tracing the letter several times following the directions on the back of the newsletter.  Then, they can color the keyword picture.  Also students are bringing home Book Choice folders today.  You may keep them until Friday, or your child can switch them out any day during the week.

Lost and Found Books

I found these books in our Library today and I think they may be books brought from home.  One of them has 'Justin' written in it, but we don't have a Justin in our class.  If one of these books is yours, please let me know and I'll return them.  If not, I will label them and add the m to our Library :).
