We will be starting spelling this week. Our spelling tests in kindergarten are very different from spelling tests in first grade. I will assist the children by pulling apart the sounds in the word and if students need they will be given a small alphabet chart to refer to. The spelling test will be on Thursday. It will be taken during small reading groups and returned in the homework folders on Monday. I have sent a new letter from Spelling City with your child's homework pack. Spelling activities are available on Spelling City. Activities with sight words are also available on this site. If you need help getting to the site go to our schools homepage and then to helpful sites. If you need further assistants email me please.
A big thank you to Ashley Richards and Laurie Gustafson and to all the parents that assisted with the Halloween celebration in any way. It was great to watch the children enjoy themselves. I hope you loved it as much as I did.
This Friday both morning and afternoon kindergarten sessions will be having learning centers. This month we are learning about the different food groups, our families, Thanksgiving and how to keep our bodies healthy. During both sessions we need two additional volunteers. If you are able to come in this Friday to assist with these centers at 9:00 or 11:30 AM I can provide the lesson for you if you desire and get the materials ready that the children will need. Just come have fun.
