Week 12

A few reminders...

• This Friday is the Saint John XXIII Harvest Fest!! For those of you that are new to our school, you don't want to miss this fun filled evening of playing, dancing, jumping and all kinds of fun! Please see the Homeroom News tab to sign up  to volunteer for a time slot to help out our class. You do need to have your Safe Environment Training complete.  Thank you in advance! I look forward to seeing you all there Friday!
• Library book are due back Mondays.
• Thank you for sending in box tops last week. We will wait and see what our final count is later this week!
• Parent/ Teacher Conferences are around the corner, November 6-10. Monday afternoon I will send out a signup genius with the time slots. Please sign up for one that works best for you. I look forward to meeting with you to celebrate your child's kindergarten successes thus far!

Literacy: This week we add the sight word a to our list. We are up to 7 words so far. Keep on practicing at home with your child...it's really paying off! We will focus on the letter c and the sound /k/.  The students will hear two stories about movement. We will practice using many different words to describe movement and even practice some silly moves too! We will also work on descriptions using our color words too!

Religion: In preparation for All Saint's day next week, we will spend each day learning about a new saint.  We will gain a deeper understanding of what makes a saint and how we too can be little saints!

Math: We continue to build on our teen numbers up to 20. We are finding patterns in our counting and working on number formation. The students are getting pretty good with using 10 frames to count and we will keep practicing with them this week. 

Have a great week!
