HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Welcome back to school! The students and I are so excited to be back to school! We are getting back into the swing of things and are busy reading our next book in the FAST series, Where is Sam? The students are doing a wonderful job reading and sounding out and spelling words! I am very impressed. Please take a moment to walk down the hallway and look at the "New Year's Resolution's" they wrote on their own! We will be going to Mass for the first time as a class on Thursday! We will sit with our 7th grade buddies. Please reinforce proper church behavior with your child when at Sunday mass. The next book order will be coming home on Friday and is due on Friday, January 18th. Please see the sidebar for the link! Next Tuesday afternoon we will be attending an assembly in the gym about Thomas Edison.

Some reminders for this week! 1. Bagel Sale - A bagel sale order form came home yesterday. Your child may order a bagel/juice and it will be served to him/her on Friday, September 28, at our snack time! If your do not place your order by Monday, Sept. 17, your child will not receive a bagel. 2. Gym Uniform - Gym class is tomorrow, please have your child wear his/her gym uniform with gym shoes to school tomorrow! 3. Book Order - The deadline to order books from the Scholastic Book Club is tomorrow. If you would still like to order you can go to www.scholastic.com/bookclubs. Our class activation code is GPDYL. Remember our class earns a free book for each online order, and you get a $5.00 FREE book coupon! 4. Open House - Open house is tonight from 6:00-7:30, I look forward to seeing everyone there. Please take the letter on your child's desk, it gives more information about some of the things we do in Kindergarten. I will have a sign in sheet so I know who was able to come, and a Wish List of some things we could use in our classroom on the red table! Thank you so much for sharing your child with me this school year! Sandy Shook

We have had a GREAT first week of school!  The first week is about learning the routine and the rules of the classroom, so we have played several games to help us learn these things!

Today we used the website www.abcya.com on the smartboard and played abc bingo!  What fun this was!
