It is week number two of school already.  How are things going for you?  Remember that I am happy to answer any questions.  Just get a hold of me after school or e-mail my school account.
     There are 19 eager learners in our classroom.  You have done a good job of getting them ready for first grade.  A few students are missing the First Grade Information page and some need to return the technology use form.  Check in your child's folder to see if he is one of those children.
     A Unit 1 spelling list was sent home last week.  The test will be next week Thursday, Sept. 4.  That should give you plenty of time to study the words.  Using the website SPELLING CITY can be a big help.  There is a link to it right here on our blog.
     Did you remember to have your child read his Book Buddy book and return it to school?  A new book will be sent home this week.  We are keeping track on a sticker sheet so that the children can earn prizes for books read.
     Fun and Fitness afternoon is this Friday.  You are welcome to bring your lawn chair and sit and watch your child compete.  The fun begins at about 12:30.  Hope to see you then.
HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK!
