Dear Families,

November 13,2015

I would like to thank all of you who came in for Parent/Teacher Conferences. It is clear to see why I have such a great class… great parents! I am thankful for all of your support. It was nice to sit down and talk with all of you. Remember, I am here early every morning, so if you ever have concerns about your child, let me know and we can arrange a time to meet.

I am excited about our Native American unit that we have started. The students are very engaged and interested in the first thanksgiving facts we are learning. The students are practicing making Native American symbols. We are in need of 5 more coffee cans to make Native American drums. If anyone has one I would appreciate it!

Thank you for sending in canned goods. You can continue sending them in up until the 20th. Kathy Brownell will be coming to pick them up and explain to the class where they are going.

I am sending home a permission slip to walk to McQuades on Friday the 20th. Please send in your child’s coins in a labeled bag. Please do not send more than $2.00 in change. Thank you in advance. I would like to have all the bags here by Wednesday the 18th.

Our letter of the week was “Hh”. Our tongue twister was “Hannah hugs Harry the happy hound.”

The students are working hard as usual. We are adding punctuation to our writing and learned what quotation marks are used for. Ask your child, they should be able to tell you.

We are continuing our practice with addition within 5 and 2-D and 3-D  shapes. The students are learning to group shapes either as a solid(3-D) or a flat shape (2-D). Try finding things around the house to reinforce with your child at home.

You all received reading books at your conferences. Hopefully your child enjoys these. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to write me a note.

Have a nice weekend!

Sincerely,

Mrs. MacIntyre
