*Please find a list of sight words, color words, and number words with this newsletter.  These are the words that we like for children to know before they go to first grade.

We have already begun working on many of these words and will work on more as the year progresses.  We thought parents might like to have this list so you can practice at home.

Character Stars

This year our school is trying something new to recognize character stars.  Each month the entire school will be recognizing a specific character trait that will be talked about and encouraged in the classroom.  If a teacher “catches” a child going above and beyond the call of duty to show that character trait, their name is placed on a coupon in our “character can” in our classroom.  Children can be given a coupon on more than one occasion.  At the end of the month, one name is drawn out of the “character can” from each homeroom. That child will win as character star for the month, and will have a celebration at a designated time with other kindergarten winners on the lunchroom stage with Mrs. Costley, our school’s guidance counselor .

SEPTEMBER--RESPONSIBILITY

*We had several names in our “character can” for showing responsibility.  Each one of these friends were able to choose a prize from our treasure basket on the last day of this month.  The winner drawn from our class for Responsibility was-----

KINSEY JOHNSTON!

 

OCTOBER—HONESTY

*All children who had their name in our character can for honesty received a prize from our treasure basket.  The winner drawn from our class for Honesty was---

Daulton Payne!

NOVEMBER--RESPECT

 

 

 

 

 

What’s Happening?

*For a $1 donation students can buy a hat sticker on Friday and wear a hat at school.  Proceeds go to our Drug Awareness program.

*Fall Break Nov. 24-28th---Happy Thanksgiving!

*Christmas Party will be Nov. 19th at 11:00.

 

                        CAMPS Classes            

 

*The week of Oct.6, all the way through the week of Dec. 1, we will be having PE in the new gym with Coach Pirch.  (They should all be physically fit after thatJ!)
