Terrific Tuesday!

Hi Parents, 

Today was a fun filled packed day!  We started our day out with learning our new letters of the day, Qq and Rr!  Then we worked on writing our Qq and practicing the sound (coo).  As all of our friends finished up we played with Play-Doh!  Then we interviewed our Camp Ranger of the day, Tysen (AM) and Ellie (PM).  We then read our Message of the Day, did Calendar and our Daily News.  We practiced all the sounds that we have learned so far A-R with our Alphabet song (different from the ABC song, A says /a/).  Then we wrote our Camp Ranger's name for their Name Book.  We had a short recess outside in the beautiful sunshine!  Today we had our first official reading group rotations!  I have to say they were amazing!  Way to go students and helpers!  We worked on reading I Can, a book about farm animals, writing our sight word of the week- can, and writing our second letter of the day (Rr), and listened to A Sheep In Wolf's Clothing at the Listening Center.  Our last activity of the day was math.  We worked on writing a number sentence to go with what we are doing with our cubes.  For example, I have 2 blue cubes and 1 red cube for a total of 3 cubes, my number sentence would be 2 + 1 = 3!  We were tight on time, so your child may not have had time to finish this in class, please help them finish it at home!  

1) Box Tops are Due on October 1st, so you can send them in anytime this week!  Thank you to those of you that sent them in today!
2) Otis Spunkmeyer Cookie Dough paperwork is due Friday!
3) If you haven't turned in all your school forms or $8 cash for picture development, please do so!  :) 
4) Remember, the office actually needs you to fill out the WSP form and personally bring it into the office because they will also need a copy of your license when you turn in the form. This must be filled out before you can volunteer in the classroom.  If you sent the form in, I will be sending it back home tomorrow because you have to bring it in person to the office!  If you have questions, please let me know!

Have a great night!
~Love,
Mrs. Wittwer
