Tomorrow is the day that we have been counting towards and waiting for since the first day of school. I hope I can recognize everyone as they enter the classroom. Take a sneak peak of the self portraits at 100 years old.
Please make sure poetry journals are returned on Monday. We have a very special one hundred day poem that we will be using on Monday. Next week, we will pick up with our money poems. This week, we will work on sorting pennies and nickels and remembering which one is worth 5 cents and which one is worth one.
We will be investigating Yy as in "yak in the yard." Word wall words are: is, his, an, into, and. There will be no reading homework on Monday night. Every group had reading homework last Friday so if you didn't get to it this weekend, you have an extra night.
The AR tests are going great! Thanks for following the AR guidelines for Room 115. If you need more tickets, please let me know. Monday morning will be the first time to hear one of Room 115's members be recognized for joining the five point club during morning announcements. Let me know if you have questions about AR.
We are having fun learning to add and recognize the symbols used for addition. Grab yourself a set of double six domoinoes the next time you are at Target/Walmart and practice using the spots to count. For extra supplemental work: write a number sentence using each half of the domoinoes. Or just for fun, play the game of dominoes. Any time you play a game with your child, it builds taking turns, sportsmanship and one-on-one time with your child.
Nancy's Italian Ice is Monday for $1.00.
We have been investigating the vowels of the alphabet. We know vowels are the glue that holds words together. Without a vowel, a word falls apart. Ask us to identify the vowels in a word. We know that sometimes y is a vowel and sometimes it is a consonant.
PTA is this Tuesday at 6:00. Come attend the "around the world" at Blount. Also on Tuesday at Churchill (down the street from Blount) is a free workshop called Celebrate Calm from 7-9. http://celebratecalm.com/free-workshops-jan2012/ I am planning on attending this workshop after the recommendations of several Room 115 parents who attended this workshop back in the fall.
In Friday's folder, went home a half "red" sheet that was advertising the Blount Yearbook for sale. After school, I found two fliers near the cubbies. If you are interested in purchasing a yearbook and did not receive the flier, then please let me know.
This week is a very busy week but the most important thing is three very special birthdays!
Thanks for supporting and celebrating our classroom. I love your child and appreciate your affection for the students. I hope you can join us for our Valentine's Day party on Tuesday, February 14 at 1:30-2:15. Our room parents are putting together a "lovely event!"
Happy 100 Days of School!! Contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
