We started our day with a yummy pancake breakfast supplied by the SRC!
We are learning new words! The students are working in 'Tub words'. These are the very beginning Level 1A Fry words ('Apple words' that you will get shortly). We played a game called SWAT today to practice learning the words on our Word Wall.
Handwriting without Tears - is the name of our printing program. Some of the letter formations may be different than you have taught your child.
We are focusing on holding the pencil correctly with a 2 finger pincher grip and all the other fingers underneath. Please correct your child's grip at home as well as old habits are hard to break! They should be able to hold onto the pencil while holding onto a cotton ball in their hand using 2 fingers to hold the pencil, 1 finger under the pencil and the last 2 fingers holding the cotton ball in the palm of their hand.
Today we joined the Kindergarten class for computers and for phys. ed. Of course, we also needed Center time!
If I sent you a note regarding Overdue Library books, please resolve this ASAP. Until outstanding books are returned or paid for, your child will be unable to borrow further books and we don't want that to happen!
Thanks for sending in paint shirts and registrations. Last call for both by Wednesday please.
