Good Morning,

We are well underway with procedures, routines, and understanding the daily schedule. I have begun F & P testing and will continue with it until everyone has been tested. While I am testing the students are getting a hang of the activities they will do during center time and how they have to stay focused to get the work done in class. The students will visit each center three times and after the third day if the work isn't done in class then it will become homework. Also the spelling words, Words their Way, will start to come home next week. They will have a test every ten days so the actually calendar day will change but it will all be on the sheet.

In Social Studies we have been working on vocabulary and making sure we understand the meaning of the words before we begin the unit. Today we will start with the Early Humans and dive into the difference and similarities between the past and the present.

Please help remind your student that they need to bring in a piece of cardboard for our art activity that we will start Monday September 11th.  Here is a link to the activity that we will be doing- http://harringtonharmonies.com/2014/11/ancient-babylon-art-lesson-for-kids.html

If anyone would like to donate Metallic Acrylic Paint Gold or Silver for this activity to our classroom I would greatly appreciate it!! Just give me a quick email so I know its coming at kbonner@stmatthias-milw.org


As always please contact me with any questions or concerns and have a wonderful Wednesday.
Mrs. Bonner
