We are running short on help in the classroom and could use a few more hands...if you can help in class 1 hour a week, please let us know. Thanks! | What we've done this week... This week we have been reading the decodable book, "The Nap". Our new sight words this week were they and be. We studied presidents most of the week, and briefly touched on dental health. We are working on our writing every day, and the more practice the better. Encourage your child to write anything and everything they see and think. Copying words from around the house, or out of books is an easy way for them to practice! Next week we will be studying Dr. Seuss! Dear Families,
Throughout this school year I have been battling with a thyroid condition, as well as a parathyroid lesion. It has taken a toll on me, making me sleep longer hours, without the benefits of feeling rested among many other symptoms. I will be going out for surgery on Tuesday, February 26th, and will be out for recovery through March 8th. During this time Mrs. Kerr will still be in class, and our sub will be Ms. Rering as she has subbed most days I have been out this year. Please feel free to talk with Mrs. Kerr or Mrs. Rearing about any concerns while I am out. Thank you for your patience and understanding, it has been a rough year health-wise, but I know I will be feeling better as I recover. ~Mrs. Kime Next week is Hundreds Day!! We will be celebrating 100s Day on Wednesday, February 27th by dressing up as 100 year old people. Please help your child to find something to wear if they choose to participate in this event, it should be lots of fun! We will spend our day surrounded by 100s activities. |
