Kindergarten news for the week of
October 28th – November 1st
Next week in phonics we will be learning about the letter Mm
as in monkey. You can see how your child
did on their first word list test. This
will come home on Monday. Word list 2 is
in their folder to practice for next week.
Your child may grow a mustache by the end of the week! I did have many parents that said they would
like a list of the sight words we’ve learned so far. These will come home next week in an
envelope. Please keep them at home to
practice!
Please return your conference form if you have not already
sent it. You will get an assigned time
on November 4th. Also return
your party money as soon as you can. We
have not received money from 10 children.
