1/8 of the school year in the books!!!

Wow! I can't believe it's already mid-September!!! Only 14 school days until Fall Break... But who's counting? 😉

This week we will finish our American symbols unit as well as briefly discuss 9/11. Progress reports will also go home this week as well. 

We've been working hard in class tackling new reading and math skills. As you've noticed we have math and spelling homework almost nightly. Please make sure your child is practicing spelling each night. It is very easy to distinguished which friends have been doing their homework! 

If you'd like fun way to practice spelling check under our "spelling" tab for website and ideas to fun practice. Mrs. Yonker's favorite is good old fashion shaving cream spelling words! Kids love smearing it on the table and writing their words in it! Messy- but well worth it! 

Here are this weeks spelling words! Have a super week! 😉

Labor no more!!!

Happy Labor Day weekend!!!

This week we finished up our unit about community helpers and also celebrated our awesome attendance with and ice cream treat! 

See our friends practicing their detective skill and learning about policemen as community helpers by investigating each others fingerprints. 

Have a great Labor day weekend and below are next weeks spelling words! Soak up some sun, summer is nearing an end!

Spelling Words

This weeks spelling words! 

Our test will be on Friday, good luck!

Three days in the books!!!

We had a great first three days of school!!! 

We've been practicing very hard on our school procedures and talking about what it takes to be a leader, and how to be a responsible student. 

This week we'll begin training for our small group centers, as well as begin our "All About Me" week, where we learn more about each of our classmates! 

Some of you may have questions on how you can help your child and I'd like to share this post I found via Pinterest. 

I truly love number two!!! We're working very hard this year to create successful leaders and my goal is to see these students become responsible and self sufficient young tykes!!! 

Please contact me via e mail at leeann.yonker@hardin.kyschools.us if you have any questions. Most of you have also signed up to see your child's behavior via Classroom Do Jo. This will be a great tool for you to track your child's behavior, attendance, and if they are turning in assignments! 

Have a great weekend!!!
