"C" Week with Eric "C"arle and "C"aterpillars

Week of September 10-13

Parent Meeting - Curriculum Night and Prayer, this Tuesday night, September 11th at 6:15 p.m. in our classroom.  As Mrs. Jernigan and I realized that we will not meet with parents in our class again until January, we asked special permission to have our own class meeting (not a big grade-wide curriculum meeting).  We will touch on curriculum and Habits and then have time for prayer.  Please email us with curriculum questions, or specific concerns. 

A huge thank you to our moms of the month, Kelly Gordon and Lisbeth Fay,  for joining us on Thursday for our  trip to Italy with Papa Piccolo and other wonderful "P" activities. Thanks also to the parents that attended our first Chapel Service on Wednesday. The extra laps and arms were needed!

Looking Forward to "C" Week as we study the well-loved Eric Carle book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar.   Our moms of the month have brought in many outstanding library books that will help supplement our book studies this month.  If you have any Eric Carle books, puzzles or games at home, this would be a great week to pull them out and enjoy them as a family.  

Sound of the Week - Letter C
Book of the Week - The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Habit of the Month - Obedience
Moms of the Month - Kelly Gordon and Lisbeth Fay

NATURE WALK - Thursday, September 14th.  Weather is supposed to be beautiful this week.  Please have your child wear tennis shoes with uniform shorts, pants or skort.  We will have our snack on Nature Trail.  Please send water bottle!

We look forward to our special readers this week, Walker's grandfather,  Don Horton,          on Tuesday, 11th at 10:45 and Anne Marie Stanley, Ryan's mom on Thursday, 13th at 10:45!

Moving to LInes!
We have been impressed with the grips and letter formation of my class this year.  This week, we will  to move our letters to "lines" and all students did very well.  Contrary to what we mentioned at the first class meeting,  we believe it is appropriate that we go ahead and move to "lines" in our Handwriting Without Tears.  I know it doesn't sounds like a big deal, but to a kindergartener, it really is a big step.

Have a blessed Week!
