Hi Parents,
Hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving! Please excuse my tardiness with my blog this week~its been a busy one for me.
Congratulations Colin! He is our star-of-the-week! Baby Duck visited his home 5 years ago. I'm sure she is excited to be back at the Ashley home.
We began letter book Ii this week. Please continue to review the previous letter sounds/word lists as often as possible. I will be giving another spelling test next week.
There are several students having difficulty printing numbers 1-10 correctly~ I still am seeing many reversals. Have your child practice their printing. I will be giving a printing test next week.
Yesterday we began talking about how important our families are and what we like to do with our families. Going to the beach, out to dinner,and playing games were some of our favorite activities. All family pictures are due in tomorrow for class discussion.
As I mentioned in my newsletter, I will not be here on Friday because of a family wedding. We all know that a substitue does not always do things the exact way as the teacher does. I have told the class not to say," Mrs. Revis doesn't do it that way." Please remind your child to be on their best behavior~I certainly would appreciate it.
I do try and take the class out for recess if the weather allows. Its good to get some fresh air~especially in this room that is quite warm. Please make sure your child has a hat or hood and some mittens.
On Monday we discussed the meaning of Advent, and made our own Advent wreaths yesterday.
Our class poem is also about Advent. When taking your child to church on Sunday, point out the Advent wreath that is in church.
Have a good week~stay warm!
Mrs. Revis
