Monday!


What a great rainy day!  Today was also a very busy day!  We started our day by introducing our new letter of the week, Jj and reading our Alpha Tales book.  Then we did our picture guess and read our class pal "book" (Clifford or Tigger)!  Then we labeled the parts of a worm in our science journal and wrote some facts that we learned about them.  Students got to see an earth worm and a red worm and learned the differences between the two.  After that, AM students learned a new math card game, called "Hide the Zero" (PM will do this tomorrow).   In both classes, Mrs. Pittz came and taught us a social skills lesson on how to calm ourselves if we feel we are getting worked up.  In the morning class, we celebrated Gwyneth's birthday with her Royal Reader.  In the PM class we had our APEX Fund Run kick off, and PM students brought home their APEX Pass.  The AM class will get their passes tomorrow morning along with a mini kick off in our room!  PM kinders also had a short check out time this afternoon.  

Important Info:

1) Parents, today is the start of our APEX Fund Run to raise money for technology for our school. Please take a look at the pass as soon as your student brings it home.  All the information needed is in your child's pass.   Please log in and get familiar with the website.  It is easy to navigate and for others to give pledges or donations online.  If you have any questions, please email me.

2) FYI.  Starting today, I am coaching track right after school, so I will be posting blog posts later than usual.

3) Homework Folders went home today!

4) Take Home books were exchanged today!

Have a great evening!
