Classroom News-September 1, 2017
We had a fun and busy week in kindergarten! Next week is looking very busy too!
No school on Monday, September 4. It is Labor Day. Enjoy the long weekend!
Late Start: Wednesday, September 6 is a Late Start Day. School will start at 11:30 and we will go directly to lunch. We will dismiss at 3:40.
ALL-DAY Friday: We will be at school ALL DAY on Friday, September 8. This will make up for time we lost on Monday.
Parent Orientation Meetings: I will host Parent Orientation meetings immediately after school on Wednesday, September 6 and Friday, September 8. This is a terrific opportunity to learn about what we do in the classroom (no, its not blocks, snacks and naps). I have been told these meetings are very helpful! I look forward to seeing everyone there!
Academics: We will continue to work with Chicka Chicka Boom Boom on Wednesday and will start work with Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You Hear on Friday. We are also working on learning the Orton-Gillingham letter cards, and counting to 30. On Wednesday, we will meet our 3rd Grade Buddies for the first time! Ms. Roth's class will come in and spend some time with us.
Class Dojo: I have started using Class Dojo in the classroom to encourage the children to display positive behavior. When they earn 25 points, they can earn lunch in the classroom with me or free time on the ipad. You have an opportunity to monitor your child's behavior by accessing their Class Dojo account. I sent email invitations to everyone this afternoon. The easiest way to access your child's account is to download the Class Dojo app on your phone. It is a free app. If you have any questions, please let me know. I am also interested in your feedback.
Enjoy the long weekend!
