***Just a reminder that we will not be wearing costumes for our party and younger siblings are not able to attend the parties, sorry.

***Just a reminder that this next 9 weeks we have been working hard on color words.  These were the first group of sight words that I tested for the this progress report.  Here is a list of all of the sight words, or "POPCORN WORDS", that we have learned so far:  a, and, come, I, is, like, me, see, the, we, with, and the color words.  Thank you so much for your continued review and practice at home!  It makes such a huge difference!!!

Thanks so much for everyone's support with our completing our family projects and the letter of the week homework!  The Family Pumpkins that the kids have been bringing in have been fantastic!!!  They are so excited to share them with their friends and tell us how they were made!  I wish you could see their faces just beaming as they share their pumpkins with everyone at school! It is neat to see how they are all so unique and special to each child in their own way.J The kids love seeing all of the different ways you can decorate them!  Letter of the week homework has been a huge hit at school, too, as they get to show and tell a little more with their drawings and handwriting!  They are all getting very good at standing up in front of their friends and sharing!!! 

***We are still collecting money in our classroom for UNICEF through Halloween.  It will be donated to help the needy children around the world.

 Thank you for any donations that you can make!J

Next week we will be studying the letter Dd.

**Congratulations to this weeks’ “Star Students”
