Story: Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See? By: Bill Martin, Jr.
Oh My!! The animals from this book have jumped out of it! They are hanging around the school for us to find as we take a tour of our school.

PhyEd: Mr. Ronnenberg, our school PE teacher, will show the children how to do "Morning Movers" today. There is a path designated by the playground where the kids can walk if they arrive at school before 8:00. Mr. Ronnenberg and other staff supervise this activity every day so you can be assured your child is safe.
The children will meet Wiggles the Dog to learn about our classroom rules. At the conclusion of the lesson, they are making Wiggles!

We have computer class with Miss Casebolt today from 9:20-9:50. We see her once a week.

 Irish Pride: Cafeteria Expectations
Some of the teaching points are:
~Eat first, talk last.
~Be sure to keep your food to yourself.
~Clean up after yourself.
~Stay seated at the lunch table until an adult tells you to empty your tray.
~Controlled voices.

Irish Pride: Hallway Expectations Being Taught Today:
~Hands to Self
~Quiet
~Walking
~Looking forward
~Stay together

If you can remind your child of these points, the expectations become internalized quicker.

~What a FANTASTIC launch to their Kindergarten year! We have covered so many new things in such a short time and have already settled into some routines. Next week we begin our letter/sight word study.
~PLEASE return any paperwork, your child's 4 x 6 photo, and your framed family photo on Monday if you haven't done so already-thank you.

Have a fabulous weekend!
