L
Library: We
have library on Tuesdays for half of an hour.
Students will have the opportunity to check out books and bring them
home. In the Library they will be given
lessons on how to use the library, read stories, and assist students in
checking out books.
Literacy
Centers: During literacy centers, children practice
reading and writing skills while the teacher works with individual children or
small guided reading groups. The center activities are designed to
strengthen letter/sound knowledge, listening skills, oral language expression,
rhyme, letter formation and cooperation. We will also be incorporating Daily Five this year: Read to Self, Buddy Read, Listen to reading, word work, and writing about reading.
Lunch: We
have lunch from 10:55-11:50 . Children may bring a packed lunch from home
or eat a school lunch. Each morning when
students enter the classroom, they will sign up for their choice for
lunch. Students will be sent home with a
calendar monthly with the menu. PLEASE MAKE SURE
YOUR CHILD KNOWS WHAT HIS OR HER LUNCH CHOICE IS WHEN THEY ENTER THE
CLASSROOM. Also the menu changes monthly as far as alternatives
for the main course so watch that carefully.
