Sight Words: can, not, it, what, be, good
Prayer of the Month: Act of Contrition
 
Please continue to practice recognizing and writing: sight words, letter recognition and phonics. We will continue working on these skills in class. In addition, we will continue practicing identifying beginning, middle and ending sounds, rhyming and writing numbers to 1 -30.
 
Fall Program:  We are in the Fall Program.  Children can wear cowboy/cowgirl attire or something nice.  We will meet in our classroom by 6:15 p.m.

Homework:
If your child is struggling with homework, help is available afterschool.  Please see me in advance to schedule help.
 
Uniforms:  Its cold out there!  Time for sweatshirts/sweaters.  Please label them.  We try very hard to make sure your child does not lose their sweatshirts, labeling them helps.
 
Thanksgiving Snack:
It is tradition here at OLM for the Kindergarten (Native Americans) to host a Thanksgiving snack for the First graders (Pilgrims). We will have a small Thanksgiving snack with 1st grade class on Thursday.
 
Operation Christmas:
 As we give thanks for the blessings in our lives let us not forget those in need. Each year the classes at OLM gather various supplies and create shoe boxes filled with necessities and small toys for the poor in third world countries. Thank you for bringing in your contribution.
