Important Information:

This year, we will be working closely with a speech therapist named Rebecca Stewart.  She will come to our class to team teach phonological awareness and other activities to develop language acquisition with me.  She will be coming to work with the children this Tuesday.

This week, we will continue our apple theme.  I invite the children to bring in books, toys or objects related to our theme that we can place on our theme table in the class. Thank you to all the families that have already brought things for our theme table. :)  Please be sure to write your child' s name on the item or book so that I can easily return it to you.  Thank you in advance!

We have many fun activities planned related to apples in the coming weeks. I am asking all children to bring 3 apples to school by next Monday.  Please send in a red apple (a Red Delicious, Gala or McIntosh), a yellow apple (Golden Delicious) and a green apple (Granny Smith). Please send the apples to school as soon as possible.  We will use the apples to make apple sauce and for a taste test as well as some Science and Math lessons. 

Please continue to have your child practice writing his/her name EVERY DAY.  Please have your child use lower case (small) letters for his/her name.  Thank you!

I have posted some new pictures of the children on the website. Once you have clicked on the Photos tab, just click on the link below the title of the album to view the pictures. 

While on the website, please visit the tab Family Project for more information on the Family Project for this month. 


REMINDERS:

The blue duo-tang will be sent home every Monday and must be returned the following Monday. You will keep the purple duo-tang at home. Throughout the week, please review the sound of the week and have your child complete the corresponding pages in the purple duo-tang.  Please have your child practice singing the weekly songs/poems and complete the activity at the bottom of the page (if there is one) in the blue duo-tang. Please refer to the introduction letter for a more detailed explanation of this on the 2nd page of both duo-tangs.
