September Early Release Day: September 18th

Most months, we have an Early Release Day. On these days, students go home at 1:40pm. Teachers will use this time to learn new and exciting ways to help your child be successful. September's Early Release Day is on Wednesday, September 18th. If your student is doing something new on Early Release Days, you might want to talk with them about this.

Share Chair

After Center Time, students who made books get to share and read their books. The child sharing gets to sit in the "Share Chair". The other children practice their proactive listening skills.

We love Sharing Chair Time!

Learning Centers

We are practicing working in Learning Stations. All children will get to do all of the learning centers. In the Listening Center, we listen to books on the iPad. In the Reading Center, we color and cut out books that go along with our colors. In the Review Center, we make shapes out of play dough. In the Writing Center we create small books with pictures and words. The other center is a Teacher Center. In this center, I meet with a small group of students. We work on writing letters and letter sounds.

We really like working in our centers!
