· We will be starting our 5th story for
Reading, Smash! Crash! Watch for your Family Times
newsletter to come home on Monday.
Our focus will be on the story’s character. We will be working with the consonant letter Mm and the
beginning and final sound /m/ in words.
Continue to read at home and practice the high frequency words; I, am,
the, to, a, name, out, can, love, and little; practice rhyming and counting
syllables in words and identifying the letters from Aa-Zz. Your child should be
able to read the little readers that come home on day 2 of the new story!
· For Math we will finish
up with Topic 16; Analyzing, Comparing, and Composing Shapes. Review the 2 and 3 dimensional shapes circle, square, rectangle, triangle,
hexagon, cube, cylinder, cone, and sphere. Continue to review the daily math practice pages as
well. Please review, sign, and return Topic 15 Test.
· Hearing screens are scheduled for Tuesday, September 30th
for grades K-3. Discuss with your child the importance of being quiet while the
testers are working with each student!
· Mark your calendar;
Picture retakes will be held at NSE
on Thursday, October 23rd. Anyone who may have
been absent on Picture Day in September is asked to be photographed on re-take
day. Also anyone NOT happy
with photos or had a problem may call PSP to get a correction or your child may return the photos and
be photographed again on retake day.
· The PTO school store is now open. Kindergarten students will be able
to shop on a MONDAY from 8:30-8:45.
Students are asked to shop ONLY on this day and at this time. Please do not put school store money in
your child’s folder. (Teachers will NOT see it until after the store
closes.) **Students should keep it separate in book bags where THEY can reach it
easily for shopping BEFORE homeroom.
