***Kindergarten Grandparent Lunch will be next Friday, September 21st at 12:30.
  Grandparents, aunts, uncles, or parents are invited to come and eat lunch with your child.  Adults will 
  need to bring their own lunch, but you are also able to bring lunch for your child if you would like.     Try to arrive about 15-20 minutes early just to check in with the office and find out where to go.J

    ***Please remember to check out our classroom blog and register your email if you       didn’t receive the email invitation that I had already sent out a couple weeks ago.         You can go right to it on the WS Website http//www.wssd115.org then go to             Kindergarten, next classrooms and you will find my name.J  I have taken a picture       of all of my kiddos who brought their book treasure box back to school and put their     pictures on our blog so be sure to check it out!!!J
      
          Please keep reviewing all of the letters and sounds of the alphabet, numbers 0-10, shapes, colors (and now          we are learning color words), counting to at least 25 and AB patterning along with the new sight words                  (popcorn words) that have been introduced.  We met our first popcorn (sight) word this week: I.  Be                watching for the the black and white easy reader books that will be coming home.  Please have your child        read their book to you, whoever he/she hears them read please sign your names, have your child            return them for a treat, and then they can bring their book home to start their collection for their        book treasure box at home!!! ThanksJ
    
 Starting today there will be a special visitor who will start going home on the weekends!   His name       is Brennan Bear and he is our classroom mascot!J  Each Friday I will draw a different name and that       child will have the opportunity to bring Brennan Bear home and spend the whole weekend together!  He           has his own special backpack with a binder inside where you can write down everything that Brennan and       your child did during their special time together!  We want to know about all the fun that they had!!!  Your     child will also be “Student of the Week” for that coming week.  There will be special papers in the           binder for you to fill in telling us all about your childYou are also welcome to send in any special             pictures of your child that he/she would like to have displayed in the room during his/her special week!  If       you take any pictures of your child with Brennan Bear, you are welcome to attach them to your child’s       page in the binder or send them in to put up in the room.  Brennan Bear will come back on Mondays, and        your child will get to share all of the neat things that they did together from their journal page along with            looking at their pictures and paper for “Student of the Week” and “All About Me Poster”.  The kids are so            excited!!!
