THANK YOU
Thank you to everyone who donated items for the hygiene drive and Halloween Party!! |
Fall Fest
The Horizon Fall Festival is in TWO DAYS!!! It starts at 4:00. We hope to see you there! The parking lot will be closed for food booths, so parking will be on the playground fields. |

Learning Focus:
Math- We will learn numbers 10: identifying, writing, making representations, identifying groups, and learning "one more than". We will continue working on one-to-one correspondence, counting, and sorting. We are working on counting to 50 by ones and tens.
Reading – We will learn letters "Bb" and "Mm". We will name and identify objects that begin with "B" and "M" sounds. We are also beginning to blend sounds together to make words.
These are the letters we have introduced so far this year:
A, C, O, G, T, F, S, P, I, N, H, X, B, and M.
Please have your child practice naming these at home. All students should be able to name the capital and lowercase of these letters, as well as tell you all the sounds each letter makes.
We will be working on the Sight Words: at and it. Please practice them at home.
These are the Sight Words your child should be able to proficiently read at this point:
a, and, are, can, is, me, my, on, see, the, little, you, I, has, no, for, at, and it.
Writing – We are working on writing the letters "Bb" and "Mm" correctly. They are both line letters, meaning they start at the line. "B" is a tricky letter for some children. Please be sure to help your child form "b" correctly. We are continuing to work on it at school. Thank you!
Please reinforce this at home. Please also continue helping your child write his/name correctly. It is VERY important that children form their letters correctly NOW, when we are learning them.Thank you!
