Back on Track, At Last!!

We have had a great two days getting back into the swing of things in kindergarten.  Thanks to all of you for your understanding and get well wishes the last couple of weeks.  I think we are all ready to charge ahead now and find out what is next in kindergarten.  This week, of course, we are having fun celebrating Halloween.  Yesterday we made some very cute witches and today we made treat bags for them.  These witches are very particular and only like treats that begin with a /w/ sound.  The children filled their bags with watermelons, wagons, windows, watches and little witches.  They are hanging on the wall outside our room and look very festive.

Our new star word for this week is like.  The children are already very familiar with this word because of its popularity in our Daily News.  Therefore our updated Star Words include: I, a, my, the, am, like, to & go.  When you also consider the letter sounds we have discussed including /at/ words the children are reading several words.  Look for them as you are reading nightly with your child.
