Mrs. Kamphouse’s Class -September 22, 2017  
    
Sept. 25:      Watch DOG pizza dinner night
Sept. 29:      Substitute in the p.m.  I will be at a doctor appointment in Grand Rapids for my daughter in the afternoon.
Oct. 4:         Geer’s Farm Pumpkin Patch field trip


Reading:
Thank you for reading with your child each night!  They are excited to have books that they can keep. J 
We have been studying books closely since day 1. 
Ask your child about Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, The Dot, Molly Lou Melon, and Lily’s Purple Plastic Purse.  They are learning all that it takes to comprehend a story, and I think that they are loving this time.  We practice predicting, retelling, visualizing, making connections, giving our opinions, and so much more!  Next week our story will be Crysanthemum.

Word Work:
We have been working on CVC words (hat, mop).  This week’s focus was short o.  Last week’s focus was short a.  Next week we will try to add l blends at the beginning of these words (slop, plan).

Math:
Next week we will be taking the math portion of the NWEA test on Tuesday and Wednesday.  We will most likely take the Unit 1 test on Wednesday or Thursday, depending on how the days go.  Beginning in Unit 2 we will take weekly quizzes instead of the end of the unit test.  We will also begin taking home homework during this unit. 

Field Trip:
The Geer’s Pumpkin Patch note was in your child’s mail today.  We will go to the patch from 9:00-11:00 am on October 4th.  PLEASE SEND IN $5.00 before this date.  Please send another $5.00 and the note back to me if you plan on joining us for the field trip.  Please let me know if you are in need of help for your child’s $5.00 fee.  We do not want them to miss out.

Student of the Week:

Reid was our Star Student last week.  Reid will turn 7 on December 3rd! He loves his mom, adventure hikes, fireworks, and cake! Reid’s favorite movie is The Nut Job 2.  He hopes to learn to swim better, and to learn more about Science! J
