Week of
September 18, 2017
What an amazing week! This week we attended Mass together for the
first time. I’m so proud of the great
job everyone did participating in the Mass by paying attention to Father,
singing songs, and praying. On Thursday
Fr. Pfeiffer talked to us about parts of the Mass. He explained different areas of the Sanctuary
– the altar table, Tabernacle, ambo, Baptismal font, and the priest chair. We started the week with Talk Like a Pirate Day. We
read lots of pirate books and talked like pirates. We completed our first Meet the SuperKids book, Cass.
Be sure to sign into the SuperKids app so your child can work on newly acquired
skills.
Book Club --K/1st
grade meet every Wednesday started Thursday, October 12th from
3:00-3:45. There is no charge for the
Club, but we do need parents to participate by signing up to bring a snack for
everyone one time. Please see the
separate letter in your child’s Tiger folder.
Religion: This week we learned that the beauty and
wonder God created is all around us. We
are learning to appreciate and praise the beauty in God’s world.
Language Arts: This week we continued working with the /o/
sound at the beginning of a word. We had
fun creating our own odd animals and making a book of odd animals. We started reading My Father’s Dragon by Ruth Giles Gannett.
Math: This week we continued working on reading,
writing and counting to 5. We are also
listening to word problems that have us adding and subtracting to 5. We are doing a really nice job of counting by
1’s. Please continue to work with your
child counting by 10’s.
Science & Social Studies: This week we enjoyed reading the
book I Went Walking by Sue
Williams. We were inspired to take a
walk around the block and make observations in order to write our own version
of the book. We hope to complete our
books next week.
COMING UP …
Walk-a-thon- This is our biggest fundraiser of the
year. We will be walking on Friday,

Next week a calendar and letter explaining Book It!
will be coming home. Each month a
calendar will come home. Fill in each
day that your child reads. At the end of
the month return the calendar (signed) and your child will receive a coupon for
a free Pizza Hut personal pan pizza.

A BIG thank you to all the parents, grandparents,
aunts, uncles …. that were able to attend Open House. It was so nice to talk with so many of
you. This week we had our first visit to
the Library. Mrs. Children read us a
story and we learned where some of our favorite books are located in the
library. We can check out a book every
week, as long as we bring back the previous week’s book. We
continued to work together on ways to be a good friend, and how we can help
each other learn. Be sure to check out
pictures on our blog of us during cooperative activities. We built puzzles, read books, and figured out
math problems using cubes.
Don’t forget to send your child’s towel and bag back on Monday!
Religion: This week we learned about Gods gifts of day,
night and creation of the sky. We also
learned that God created the word because of love for life and beauty.
Language Arts: We continued our first reading/writing book
focused on the sound letter C makes.
Please continue to work with your child on writing their capital and
lowercase “c”, as well as their name. Your
child will be coming home next week with a reading book each night. Monday through Thursday are reading group
books that we read in class and then the books come home so you can practice
reading with them. Please be sure to RETURN THE BOOK EVERY DAY. We need them the next day for guided
reading. On Friday’s your child will
bring home a book of their choice to enjoy over the weekend. Be sure look for your SuperKids e-mail this weekend
so your child can continue to practice reading!
Initially only books will show up, but as we continue learning sounds,
games will appear to reinforce skills we are learning.
Math: This week we continued to work on counting
and writing numbers 2, 3 and 4. We are
counting to 30, and started practicing counting by 10’s.
Social Studies: We continued working on celebrating our
differences and similarities. We read
books and discussed how to be a good friend and how to share.
COMING UP …
Book of the Week: One by Kathryn Otashi. Focus words: floating, overall, comforted, budge
Language Arts: Continue working on writing our names
