Good Bye August, Hello September! It was great seeing everyone at Open House on Tuesday night! 

Scholastic Book orders are due next Friday, Sept. 9th. Remember you can order on-line using the our class code GNZ8R. 

Just a reminder, this Monday is Labor Day- No School. Enjoy your three day weekend!

Our Specials schedule for next week is:
Tuesday- Day 3              
Wednesday- Day 4
Thursday- Day 5
Friday- Day 6
If you go on the Specials Teams Tabs on the top of the blog, the specials schedule is posted there. I figured that was much easier than the way I posted it last time. 

During our morning meeting with the whole school, we skyped with Coach and the Foreman at the location of our new school. He gave us a tour of our new school. It was pretty awesome!

Thank you to Analice's mom for helping in literacy centers this week. I will be posting the sign ups for Literacy and Math centers very soon. 

Academic Update:

Literacy: This week, we learned two new letters- M and N. We also learned the sight words I and like. We really practiced writing in our journals using the sight words too.  Keep practicing your letters and sounds!

Math: This week we learned our color words and sang lots of songs about our colors too. We also talked about our shapes too- circle, square, rectangle and triangle. 

Science: We finished up our five senses unit. :) Next week we will be talking about our community helpers in social studies. I'm bringing the class pet, Tom-Tom the turtle to school next week. We will talk about turtles for science next week.

Have a great weekend, Hello College Football- Roll Tide!
