August 30- Sept 3

Hello Everyone,
Sorry I didn't get a post out last week. But this is a new week and we are looking forward to lots of new things to learn. Thanks to Kinnly who was our Special Person last week, and we can't wait to hear from Joel this week.

We are starting to read and bring home books so please check backpacks nightly to see if your child has been assigned to read.

We did really well on our spelling test last week, most of the kids got 100%, so please continue to help them study. I forgot to bring home a list of spelling words Friday, but I will post those tomorrow night so you can help your child. It sure makes a difference when they study at home. Also, continue reading with your child nightly, even if I didn't send a book home with them. Find one from your home library and enjoy 20 minutes with your child.

Here are some pretty cute pictures of our class playing out on the playground. You have amazing kids. Thanks for letting me enjoy them this year!

Week 2, August 16-20

Hi Everyone,
Sorry I don't have any pictures posted...I lost my camera! I have torn my house apart looking for it. As soon as I find it there will be plenty of cute pictures to come.

This week we will introduce lots of new things. We will be learning how to use our computers, work independently, work in reading groups, etc., etc., etc... On Friday mornings, at 9:00 we will always do centers. I could use a parent to volunteer each Friday to help with these centers. If I can get some help we can do really fun centers.

Please come to our Parent University this Tuesday at 6:00. I will be going over our classroom rules, expectations and I will be happy to answer any questions you have about our class. The children have also been working on a book for you to see that night.

For homework this week please read to your child for 20 minutes each night. This is the greatest thing you can do to help your childs reading.

Have a great week,
Mrs. Hamblin

Welcome To School!

Welcome to a new school year! This will be a great year and I a so looking forward to meeting with you and your children on Wednesday so we can get to know each other.

We will be learning about all sorts of things this year, like apples, dinosaurs, the ocean...lots of cool stuff!

Please help your child learn to tie their shoes before they get here, it seems I spend much of my day tying shoes and it be a huge help if they can already do it.

Please feel free to call me either in my classroom or at home if you have any questions about our upcoming year.

Mrs. Hamblin
