Marching On

Speech & Language:  This week we will practice the blend of /ch/.  We will make giant (paper) chocolate chunk cookies and our snack of cherries will be provided by Zachary.

Sharing:  The Piglets will share this week.

This week we will continue with our new "perfect printing" morning work, journal writing, sight words and beginner reading books.  The children are enjoying their new reading skills and it is such a joy to watch them grow!

We are getting so close to the end of the alphabet!  This week we will meet Mr. X who gives us the message of appreciating each other's differences.  This is a lesson we talk about in both our Conscious Discipline program and our Second Step program.  Learning to accept differences is part of our social skills development.

Here is our schedule for the week:
Monday:  Let's Find Out! magazine
Tuesday:  Speech & Language, P.E. Gardening
Wednesday:  Art, Yoga, Council
Thursday:  P.E., Second Step
Friday:  Morning Assembly, Planet Bravo, Sharing, Homework Review, Library, Science Big Buddies

Miss Sammantha will be out of town March 22-28.  If anyone would like to help with reading groups from 9-10 Wednesday-Friday (in addition to our scheduled volunteers) it would be appreciated!

Looking forward:  The Silent Auction is coming soon, April 28th!  I look forward to seeing everyone there for a fun evening.

Thank you for all of your generous help in Room K,
Mrs. W.
