October 26th- November 6th

This week and next we are focusing on tools that keep us organized.  We will learn about clocks, calendars, and schedules.  In math we will discuss positional terms, patterns, and weight.  Our sight words are am, of, or, no, as, & and.

Wednesday, November 4th is an early dismissal day.  All kindergarteners will be taking the NNAT that day.  This test is used for placement in the gifted and talented program.  Students will have about 30 minutes to take the test.  I will test half of the class at a time.  One of the teacher aides will help with the kids that are not testing.  Please make sure that your child has a good night's sleep and a good breakfast that morning.  The afternoon has been set aside for parent/teacher conferences.  Report cards will also be given out that day.  

We are collecting Box Tops for Education.  There is a competition between all of the classes at Mark Twain to see who can bring in the most.  My class won last year...let's make it a tradition!  :)
