A PEEK AT OUR WEEK

Leaves will fall all around... orange, yellow, red and brown! 🍂 Goodbye September, Hello October!
We celebrated two special birthdays this week. Happy Birthday, Mila and Ollie!

PRACTICE AT HOME

FUNDATIONS

We love to wake up "Mama Echo" and "Baby Echo" each day. They help us learn our letters and sounds! In the first unit, we will learn how to identify lowercase letters and sounds.

This week we learned:

i, u

HIGH FREQUENCY WORDS

In Kindergarten, we will learn to identify and write high frequency words (sight words). We will also practicing using high frequency words in full sentences. For example, "I am ____ years old."

This week we continued learning:

the, little

MATH

In math, we started learning how to compare numbers 0-5. We learned how to identify which group is greater or less. We also learned about equal groups. Ask to hear our "match maker" song. This is the strategy we use when we compare groups! Great work, little mathematicians!

WRITING

Students will continue writing their names on their classwork each day. Please encourage your child to use all lowercase letters for their name except the first letter. Happy Writing!

SAVE THE DATE

🎃

Friday, October 31st is our Halloween Storybook Parade at the School #6 track. More information (including time) to follow!
We do not distribute edible goody bags (NO candy, treats, etc.) for this or any other event in our school. Non-edible goody bags are permitted (but not required!).
A special note to parents who work: Please do not feel any sense of obligation to attend this event if it causes you stress at work. It is a short and sweet event (about 15-20 minutes in total). There will be other occasions that are far more important for you to attend, including Field Day, as well as other classroom events like birthdays and holiday parties. Many children will not have a family member present at this parade so please relieve yourself of any guilt! Feel free to send a grandparent or family friend.

REMINDERS

There is no school on Monday, October 13th.
School 6 Picture Day is October 14th-October 16th. We are waiting for the final schedule from the office to find out which day will be the day for our class. Stay tuned for more information!
Every FRIDAY is Sailor Spirit Day! Feel free to dress your child in School #6/Oceanside gear, anchors, or anything blue!
Please empty your child's folder each day after school!
We are a NUT free school. Please send the label of ingredients for foods that are not in packaging.
