We are really taking off. I'm so impressed with how well we are coming together as a class. The kids are doing a great job remembering our rules and routines and because of this we are able to do more with academics. We have worked hard to be independent during our literacy center time. Very soon, I will begin pulling small groups of students to work on targeted skills that are just right for them. This is when we are really able to make some progress.
Just a reminder, Tuesday is school picture day. I have received a few orders already and you can also order online. Can't wait to see your little cuties dressed in their best! :)
Thank you so much to everyone that sent us stickers and address labels! That is so very helpful and appreciated!

Here is our week in pictures.
We learned about emotions in counselor this week.
Mrs. Clemsen read us a great Elephant and Piggy book!
We are participating some social skills lessons called "Stop and Think". These lessons focus on making good choices.
We have become such good writers we were read to move from blank journals to having our own writing folder. We now have paper with a place for illustrations and a line to write words.
Check out some of our amazing sorting!
We had a special guest this week. Monica Naylor is Beulah Ralph's daughter. She came to our class and read a special book about her mother that she wrote. Look in your child's Friday folder for a paper copy.
Camp out!
We learned how to use glue. They will be bringing these beauties home tonight. Ask your child to tell you about how much glue to use.
Happy birthday friend! Thanks for sharing treats!
Have a wonderful weekend!
