Water Bottle and Afternoon snack - I still have some students that do not bring water bottles every day.  I do not have any alternatives as the drinking fountains are closed.  It is very important.

Daily 5 endurance

We are continuing to work on Read To Self.  Children are being encouraged to find a quiet spot and look at books for 5 minutes independently.  This week we will increase our time to ten minutes.


NWEA

We are beginning our NWEA Testing and will be testing on Tues and Wed. 9/29-30


Parent Teacher Conferences

The district holds conferences in the month of October and November.  Usually kindergarten conferences are scheduled in November so that there is time for children to adjust to school and for teachers to collect data on their progress.  These will be held virtually in a Google Meet.


October 15th - afternoon or evening

OR

November 4-6 evenings




Snacks - We have 17 children in our class right now.  Please make sure your child brings enough snacks on their leader day. The snacks must be store bought and individually wrapped.

 


Scholastic Orders - I will be placing our book order on Monday September 28th.  You can find many wonderful books at great prices in the online catalogs.

Since we can not have volunteer readers in person,
we are trying the virtual approach this year.

If you would be willing to read to our class
via a recording or Google Meets, we would love it!
Please sign up with your name and email for your desired week.  
Older siblings and grandparents are also very welcome to read to us!!  
Any date can be arranged but Fridays are preferred 
Once you sign up for a week,  I will contact you the Friday
before to come up with a plan.
 Plan on reading 1-2 books for a total of  5-10 minutes. Thank you!

Welcome to Kindergarten

 

Welcome to our classroom blog.  
This will be home to my weekly newsletter. 
 New information will come out on Sunday evenings so be sure 
and check after reading Mr Hubble's weekly School-wide Blog Post.
You will also want to become familiar with our Google Classroom. 

Link:  https://classroom.google.com/c/ODc1MjYzMzY0MzVa?cjc=lnsrfef

 This is something new to the Kindergarten Team so you will be learning how to use it along with us so please bear with me if we hit a few bumps along the way.
This year you will need to know your child's id number.  It is used for logging into computer activities and it is the beginning of your student's school email.  
This number will be added to your child's homework folder cover this week so it will be easy to find.
