Reading:
Our new vocabulary words are:
animals before between knew
why swallow woodpile few
dinosaurs enemy medicine scales
underneath slither protect peels
Please put this list in a handy spot and have your child
practice reading through it a couple of times each day.
Our comprehension
skill is graphic sources. In selections
that give facts, pictures or labelled diagrams are often used to make the
information easier to understand. These
pictures and diagrams are called graphic sources. As you read with your child at home, please
take time to look for graphic sources in the stories.
Spelling:
Your child’s new list is attached to this letter.
Coins for Kids:
Wow! The generosity of the students in our class is amazing. Our classroom came in second place by raising
$200.67 to help fight world hunger. We
will be having a pizza party in the near future. Our entire elementary school raised
$1447.40. Each dollar raised buys four
meals for hungry children.
Elementary Christmas
Musical: We are busy practicing, and our musical will
be on Monday, December 16 at 7:00 in the big gym. Please mark your calendar.
Kid’s Night Out:
This will be on Friday, December 6.
Please remember to send in your child’s form and money if your child
will be attending.
New Drop Off and
Pick Up Procedures: Just a reminder that these new
safety practices begin today. Thanks so
much for your cooperation in dropping off and/or picking up your child by the
elementary cafeteria.
Appropriate Dress:
With the weather getting colder it is important that your child is dressed
appropriately for outdoor recess. Please
send snowpants, boots, hat, and gloves every day. Also, please make sure your child has an
extra pair of socks and mittens in his/her backpack in case a pair gets
wet. This way your child will always
have warm, dry feet and hands.
Have a good week!
Mrs. Wimmler
