Character Parade
Kindergarten will be having a Character Parade on October 30th. Students are encouraged to dress up as their favorite story book character. Students must bring the story book that corresponds to their costume. A few examples would be Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Three Little Pigs, Woody, Buzz Light Year from Toy Story. The students costume must be school appropriate. No guns or any kind of weapons and nothing scary.

Reading:
Rhyming Words
Focus Letters
Monday- Ww
Tuesday - Xx
Wednesday - Yy
Thursday - Zz
Friday - no school
Focus Sight Words: my and zero
Writing:
I can listen for the sounds in the words to write a story. Students will most likely begin writing only using beginning sounds, then adding ending sounds, lastly the middle sounds of the words will come. Do not be concerned if their spelling is incorrect. The goal is getting their ideas on paper. Beginning sounds are a great way to start.
Math:
Ways to make numbers 1 through 10
Science
Exploring interactions between magnets and various materials
Social Studies
Looking at models and maps
Box Top Competition!
Ask your neighbors, families, and friends for box tops for our class! Box tops are on the tops of many household items and food. Each one you turn in counts for ten cents for the school. It adds up fast! Help us win the competition!
Join PTA!
We want our classes to have the most membership! All it takes is $6.50! Anyone can join parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. This helps our school in many ways! Thank you PTA for all you do!
Recess Basket
