What is happening in our class...

We are walking to the Fire Department behind the school on Monday, Oct. 3,we will learn about fire safety. We have been discussing how autumn is different than summer, help your child look for signs of the season. We are learning how community helpers can help us. Fall break is scheduled for Sumner County Schools for Oct. 8-17. School pictures will be on Oct. 20.

September News

We are very busy in our classroom. We use a calendar everyday in our classroom. Ask your child daily what day it is, what tomorrow will be and what yesterday was. Talk about the weather, we are using a thermometer to check the weather daily. Your child needs to bring a jacket to school because we go outside daily unless it is raining. We are studying the letters of the alphabet and learning that letters make sounds. We have noticed that putting letter sounds together make words. Encourage your child to write letters of the alphabet at home.

Grandparent's Day at J.W.Wiseman Cafeteria

You are invited to come and enjoy breakfast with the students and celebrate Grandparent's Day on Thursday, Sept. 15. Breakfast will be served from 6:45 am -8:00 am. The price is $4 for adults. Our lunchroom staff enjoys serving our students with nutritious, healthy choice meals and a friendly smile daily.

Moving Right Along...

The children are doing a great job learning our classroom routines and procedures. I was very proud of ALL of them today! Please check your child's folder everyday for notes and homework. Your child needs to bring his/her folder to school everyday. If you have any questions feel free to email me at k.greer@rocketmail.com. I am looking forward to a GREAT school year!

First Full Week

WOW!! This has been a GREAT week!! We have already learned to read the color words RED, BLUE, YELLOW, GREEN, and PURPLE. We made solar bracelets on Wednesday when we talked about the sun and the color yellow. We have started our first unit in Math and have been sorting all types of things. Our favorite thing to sort was BUTTONS. We have learned that items can be sorted in many ways such as size, colors, shape, etc. We have been counting the children in our classroom every day and we have ten boys and nine girls which equals 19 all together. We have a wonderful group of children in our class this year, and I want to say a special "Thank you" to you, the parents, for being sure your child had all their necessary kindergarten supplies. Remember we start promptly at 7:35a.m., and dismiss at 1:25 pm each day.
