What's Coming Home on Monday?

We just wanted to give you a heads up on what will be in your child's homework folder tomorrow.
On the LEFT AT HOME side:
1. A traceable September calendar. Have your child trace the month and dates for September. They do not need to return this calendar, this is just a little extra letter and number practice for them. You can make it a big deal that they have their own "Kindergarten Calendar!" :) 
2. An information packet including: correct pencil grip, letter writing progression, and how your child should be forming their letters.
3. Whitworth Private Swim Lessons Sign Up

On the RIGHT BACK TO SCHOOL side:
1. Homework page: On the front is our Kindergarten Daily News, as well as upcoming events and a math challenge. On the back, students need to write one sentence per day ON THEIR OWN. Remember, these first few weeks of homework can be difficult, so please just encourage your child to do their best and stay positive! 
 2.  Picture Packet and reminder: Friday, September 19th. Remember, Dorian will be taking both individual and class pictures on that day.  Please return and send in the picture packet complete.
3. Take Home Book: In the plastic envelope there is a book contract (to be signed by your child and returned), an information sheet for you on how to support your child during their reading time (for you to keep), and their first book. PLEASE REMEMBER, if the book seems too easy or too difficult, please just put a note in the plastic envelope and return it on Thursday. ALL TAKE HOME BOOKS NEED TO BE RETURNED ON THURSDAY FOR CHECK IN AND EXCHANGE.
**Just a loving reminder that homework is due Friday at the beginning of class.**
