Thanksgiving Joke

Dear Parents,

This is a joke I heard and I wanted to share it with you.  A kid on the radio station said it this morning.


"What did the baby corn say to the mama corn?"   


Where is Popcorn?

HAHA

Thanksgiving Day Luncheon, Conferences, and Envelopes

Dear Parents,

Thank you for all your time and energy put into our Thanksgiving Day Luncheon!  The students really enjoyed it and I hope you did as well.  It was really a success!


I enjoyed meeting with you for Conferences. Your child shined as he or she narrated his/her classwork within the portfolio.  I truly appreciate your efforts to work with Mrs. Hodge and I, in your child's learning.  Thank you! 

If you haven't met to see your child's great portfolio, please call or e-mail with a Conference date and time you are available.  I look forward to sharing your child's strengths and areas of growth. 

If you have, or have not, met for conferences, please sign the envelope holding your child's report card and return it to school.  Students who bring in the envelope signed will receive a special treat from me.  Please remember that the report card is yours to keep. 


Respectfully,
Mrs. Sibick 

Color Monsters

Dear Parents,

You probably already saw our Color Monster Booklet.  I have used this book before with previous classes.  We drew our own silly, unscary color monsters and copied the words into a book.  Each page practices recognizing color, color names, and rhyming words.  Below are the words we have practiced and love to read.  


Colors, Colors


Red, Red
Forget it's head.

Yellow, Yellow
Sat in jello.

Orange, Orange
Squished an orange.

Green, Green
Is a dancing queen.

Blue, Blue
Is sick with flu.

Purple, Purple
Had to burple.

Pink, Pink
Sat in the sink.

Black, Black
Plays quarterback.

White, White
Bites at night.

Gray, Gray
Ate a lunch tray.

Brown, Brown
Your jeans fell down.

Orange and Red
Eat gingerbread.

Gray sees White
And shakes with fright.

Orange lets Black
Ride piggyback.

Purple and Blue
Eat barbecue.

We read these funny color monsters at our pocket chart.

Have a great weekend!

Mrs. Sibick

Literacy Station Update

Students are more confident at their work stations.

Kindergarten Students at Big Book identify words that start with a particular letter. They find the cat, because it starts with C. These books are enlarged books of the students' booklets (Cass, Oswald, Doc, etc). First and Second Graders use the Math Big Books to practice reading. In addition to reading the stories, students can count the number of syllables in a word or identify memory words within the books.

First and Second Graders will begin a game station soon. This station will have games that reiterate the skills taught within SuperKids. The first game is a matching game with our Memory Words. Kindergarten students will have a game station soon as well.

Please look at Room 100 hard at Literacy Stations!

Halloween Party

The Halloween Party was a blast. Thanks you FSA for all your time, talent, and hard-work! The students played pass the pumpkin, pin the nose on the jack-o-lantern, guess what is inside the bag, and colored halloween pictures. They were able to create edible dirt and worms from crushed Oreoes and gummy worms! Also, the students enjoyed many delicious deserts. Above are a few photographs from the party.
