This is a review week for us in language arts. Remember to keep practicing these sight words: like, come, to, here, this, he, a, I, my, the and go.

Our word families for this week are -it and -ip. We will also be working on listening for the middle sound in words.

The kids are getting really good at using their "smartie spelling". They are becoming much more comfortable when they are writing in their journals and it's great to see how far their writing has come along.

Pastries for Parents is this Thursday morning in the cafeteria from 7:45 - 8:45.
"That morning, we will be decorating and assembling “Breakfast Bags” for families to eat while they are at the Ronald McDonald House. We are asking families to donate the following supplies to fill the bags: granola bars, cereal bars (i.e., NutriGrain bars), juice boxes or pouches (100% juice only, please), and individual servings of apple sauce, nuts, or trail mix."

Ms. Bridge will be my substitute for when I go on maternity leave (hopefully not for a few weeks!). She will be joining us on Thursday and Friday to spend some time with the class and get to know the routines!

Have a great week!

Thursday, Jan. 13th from 7:45 - 8:45 is Pastries with Parents. Stop by for a light snack and to help with a service project.

We are getting to the end of our extra snack supply. Please make sure to send in a snack with your child each day and also (sometime in the next couple of weeks) send in a box or bag of snacks that we can keep in the classroom for when a child has forgotten theirs. Thank you!

I hope you enjoyed the holiday break. I'm looking forward to hearing about it from the kids today :)
