September 22, 2006 MRS. GARRISON A big thank you to my aide, Mrs. Garrison, who helps out in so many areas- it is hard to thank her for everything she does to help make your child feel special. READING Next week, we will begin Unit one in reading. Our new reading words are: the, a, my and that. The first unit is “My world.” How appropriate- that is just what we are doing in Religion! MATH We’ll continue doing numbers 1- 5 next week. Watch for our special booklets to come home! The children are doing very well with writing their numbers. Some are still reversing them and some have trouble. If your child brings a paper home that he/she has had trouble with, please let them practice at home. OUTSIDE RECESS Unless it is raining or below zero, we will be going out for recess. When it gets chilly, please send them dressed appropriately. NURSE Please do not send your child to school if he/she has a fever or has vomited during the night or in the morning. The nurse is Not allowed to administer Tylenol or over the counter drugs. If your child needs to take a prescription, we need a doctor’s note. FUNDRAISER Our fundraiser will be due on Tuesday, September 26th. All orders are due that day and payment will be due when the orders are delivered. Please try to help with any fundraisers you can-they are for the benefit of your child! Our Entertainment money or book should be returned to school by October 23rd. NAMES Most of the children are writing their names in capital letters. Please reinforce only the first letter is capital-it is a tough habit to break, but we will work on it. LETTER PEOPLE I use the letter people to supplement our phonics program. The children love them! We will meet Mr. N and his noisy nose on Monday! Each letter has an inflatable person, a song and a story. Ask your child about it! We will be making edible nests and necklaces next week. MYSTERY READER Thanks to everyone who signed up to be a mystery reader-we are looking forward to seeing you! We try to do it on Friday at 2:20, but if you have to do it on another day, drop me a note. OPEN HOUSE Thank you for taking the time to come to our Open House. It was so good to meet new faces and re-new old friendships. If you signed up to send in “goodies” for the classroom, you may send them in at any time. . UPCOMING DATES September 26-all fundraiser orders due October 2-Picture day-wear school uniforms October 23-Entertainment book or money due
