Another week come and gone...it all goes by in a fast blur!  Welcome to Aayan, Chesney, and Ellie, who joined our classes this week.  Also welcome to Gage and Gavin, who will be joining us starting on Monday!

We had several students who did not turn in their sight words homework.  Those are important to do so that children have lots of exposure to the sights words all around them.  There is a new assignment in the folder for the weekend.  Starting next week, I will send home the assignment on Monday and have them due on Friday so that I can remind the children daily to work on them.

Thanks to all of you who are reading to and encouraging your children to read daily!  It makes a BIG difference when this is done with consistency.

Book orders were just submitted, thanks to all of you who ordered.  Your children will bring home books when they arrive, in a week or so.

We have the baby pictures up in the room along with current photos.  It's fun to see how different (and how unchanged) your children are since babyhood!  We also have a web up in the hall depicting how we are the same and how we are different.  This is in conjunction with our IB unit about Who We Are, entitled Me-Ology.  We are learning about our physical differences and similarities, our emotional differences and similarities, as well as a bit about our senses.

Have a great weekend!!!
