The First Days Of Kindergarten

We have been learning about how school works these first few days of school.  The class has been introduced to the tools we use in the classroom.  We have enjoyed learning several new songs.  The kids love using the pointer to follow along as we sing.  The class has mastered walking quietly down the hall, a feat even my older kids struggled with last year!  They are greeting each other and learning to share.  They are writing their names and even attempting words like "bowling," "swing," and "airplane."  They have enjoyed using our math manipulatives for sorting and counting.  

I have been writing in each student's notebook each day.  To make sure you have seen the notebooks I would like you to either respond to me, or at least initial what you have read.  These notebooks can be a super way for us to talk back and forth and also keep a record of your child's first year at school.
You will be able to view this newsletter on our school website.  Follow the link to Ms. Roper's class

Remember that Monday is school picture day.  If you haven't sent in your child's picture money in the envelope, please be sure to do so on Monday.  We have had an exhausting, but productive week.  Be sure to let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
