Kindergarten: Hi Kindergarten family, next week we'll be learning about primary and secondary colors. We will also continue our ABC Boot camp and color: green, shape: rectangle and number 3. Sight words are green, three. Please continue to work with your child at home by writing their name and learning their sight words. First Grade: Next week we’ll continue working with fiction texts, focusing on characters in stories. Our Letterland sound for the week will be short o. In math, we’ll be making number combinations for 6 and 7. Please continue to practice sight words. The first set that was sent home will be tested the week of October 7th. If you need another copy, please let your child’s teacher know. Also, be sure your child is reading their take-home books nightly Second Grade: Greetings from the Second Grade Team! Next week we will begin to learn about matter and its properties; introduce double f, l, s, endings -ing and -ng, and review closed and open syllables; continue recounting stories including fables and folktales, from diverse cultures and tell the events in order; continue working on addition and subtraction within 20 using mental strategies and introduce the concept of even and odd numbers. Resource: Art: Our awesome little artists have learned about the Color Wheel this week! They have also finished up their projects from last week and will be bringing them home. I can’t wait to see what they create in our next project. Music: Tiger Troupe auditions are underway! Several students from all the second grade classes requested auditions! Practices will begin after Book Fair Week. Our first PTA will feature three First Grade classes and a guest performer from Mrs. Reason’s class. It’s going to be a fun evening!
