Snow Days! I did put this tip on my blog. When we have a day of school off for an in-service day or snow, we don’t skip that day. Let’s say it is day 1 on Monday, when we have school, and we’re off Tues. and Wed. for snow, it is still day 2 on Thursday. This is so the children don’t miss the same special class all of the time.
I know some of the children were upset that we didn’t get to present their report on their assigned day. We had days off, dibels testing and had to do our regular lessons! I promised them that we will continue them next week until we’re finished! We were scheduled for dibels testing last week but didn’t take it until Thursday!
In phonics next week we will learn the letter Zz as in zebra. The children generally do not have difficulty with the sound, but the formation is tricky! We will have show and tell!
Book orders are due on-line or in school on Jan. 26th if you want any books!
In math we will continue working with the numbers from 0 – 20. Many children can put them in order, and rote count them but can’t remember the numbers of each teen number individually shown out of order. You may want to practice this! The children are also confusing the coins. We only focus on penny, nickel and dime.
Monday will be Day 3 on our schedule and we will have gym. Please have your child bring sneakers if they wear boots to school.
Our tissue supply is running low! Some thoughtful children have brought tissues again! Thank you!! We are OK with hand sanitizer!
Watch for a note about the 100th day. So far it should be January 31st!
