Zero the Hero Returns

He's coming back.....Zero the Hero will visiting on Monday. As always he will be leaving a special snack. So, your child will not need a snack on Monday. Monday will be our 20th day of school.

Cooking with Ms.Sylvia

Today the children made applesauce. Each child got to help peel the apples,squeeze the lemon and add cinnamon and sugar. I think they really enjoyed getting to taste a little bit of the lemon. Ask them about making applesauce and what steps they took to make it. Another great day with the class.

100 Club

Hats off to William for being our first member of the 100 club. He counted to 100 today without any help and without skipping a number. We have many friends that are close to joining the club with William. This is a skill we practice everyday and the children are very excited about it.

This week.......

This week we have practiced matching our uppercase and lower case letters. In writing the children are practicing writing their letters. Please work on this at home.

In math we are working on writing our numbers and the 1 to 1 concept. We will continue this through October.

Ms. Christy has graciously agreed to help create a class CD of the music we sing at school. Please look for this to come home over the next week or so. I think you will find having this CD will shed some light on the things your children may be singing at home. :)

I can not express how much your children are growing each day. Each of them amaze us daily.

Ask your child about being a "Burrito Baby" today. This was a game we played at rest time and they loved it!

Blessings to You All.

Cooking with Ms.Sylvia

Today our cooking lesson involved our "Five Senses". We popped popcorn and sprinkled different flavors on them. The class enjoyed smelling the different scents, but I think the tasting part was their favorite. We tasted cheddar, spicy,butter and cinnamon popcorn. At the end we graphed witch flavor was the favorite. Cheddar popcorn was the winner.

Next week we are making applesauce.

We have four new passwords that the class has been working on. They are doing a great job on saying the password as they go in and out of the classroom. Encourage your child to look and listen for the passwords when reading to them. When in our reading center the children ring a bell when they find a password. This is a fun game you can play at home too.

Cooking with Ms.Sylvia

The class had a wonderful time making their gingerbread people today. They enjoyed smelling the ingredients that went into making the cookie. However, I think their favorite part was decorating the cookie. Please encourage your child to re-tell the story to you.

Many thanks to our parents who donated items. I do believe we have the "BEST" parents and kiddos in the school.

Reminder

SHOW-N-TELL is Tomorrow!!!!!!!

Star of the Week

Preston Peterson is our Star of the Week.

Class/Home Readers

Each week we will look at a class reader in small groups. This book will come home Wednesday or Thursday of each week. The children have learned how to use their "pointer" finger to read each word in the book. The first reader will come home in a zip-loc bag. I would encourage you to use this bag to store all the readers we send home for the year. Ask your child to read the reader to you when you see it come home. They did a great job today reading their first book. I was very impressed. Ms.Pam

Library Books

We will begin checking out books this Thursday. Please encourage your child to keep the book in the "Book Buddy" bag when not using the book. All books will need to be returned on the following Monday.
