Sound Monster: 

This Wednesday, October 9th, 2019, we will be feeding the Sound Monster. Please send in 1 item (a toy, a book, a picture, etc. ) that begins with the "f" sound on Wednesday. The item will be returned to your child at the end of the day. If you cannot find an item, you can have your child draw a picture and write the corresponding word.  Some ideas for the "f" sound include: fan, fish,feather, flower and frog.

*** Over the past two weeks, many students have FELT LEFT OUT when they did not have an item from home to feed the Sound Monster. The Sound Monster is always on Fridays (unless there is a PED. DAY, or I know I will be absent in advance, as is the case this week). Thank you for your support and cooperation. ***
