The Frolicking
Frog Gazette
For the Weeks of Aug. 19 – 23 & Aug. 26 – 30, 2013
FROG News: We have had a GREAT first 10 days of school. We have learned many things about Sope Creek School’s rules and procedures. They have made new friends, they are learning to cooperate with each other and are beginning to be active listeners. That is a LOT for just 10 days!
Our Class is split between 7 classes (3 or 4 to a class) for afternoon Specials. Please be sure to have your FROG wear GYM shoes each and every day to school.
Remember to send a healthy snack to school EVERY day and a water bottle on Mondays. We will send water bottles home on Friday to be washed.
Transportation changes MUST be made in writing.
We will begin Center Parents the Monday after Labor Day and are looking forward to having you in our class.
LANGUAGE ARTS FOCUS: Identifying the sounds letters make and rhyme. Our letter of the week will be Mm. We will have Secret Sharing each Thursday. Please work with you child, helping them to find something that begins with the Letter M. They should have three clues about their secret sharing, trying to ‘stump’ the class!!
MATH FOCUS: One to one correspondence when counting objects to 10, counting and number recognition.
IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER
