Hey My Name is Joe

Well parents here it is!! The ridiculous song that your children have been singing with all of the crazy movements. "Hey My Name Is Joe!"

Enjoy yourself and have fun laughing with your students. Come on, you know you want to get up and dance with your children, let's move!!

A New Beginning 2010-2011

We have learned names of our friends! Then we sang songs, have you heard, "Hey My name is Joe?" you should ask your son or daughter to sing for you. We also went on a "Bear Hunt" it was GREAT!!!

We have been reading new books and have made several new friends including, David who's mom always told him No! and Bertie, who has some really GROSS habits, ask your kids about his eewy habits!

We have been learning to sequence events and character of a story, we (they) are AMAZING when it comes to Brown Bear.

We have had a few discussions about authors and illustrators and we have written in our journals and showed off our own skills as authors and illustrators.

Don't forget SHOW-and-TELL is every Friday!

Thanks for sending your children to school!

So far, we are 100% perfect attendance.

See you at school!

Be looking for future classroom dates for future field trips, parties, special celebrations and lots of Crazy PreK stuff. We will have our first published newsletter later today. Be ready for the fun and excitement!!

Happy Friday!

Donuts with Dad!!

Hey Dad! Bring your son or daughter and join us in the school cafeteria for donuts. Your children will love to have some time with Dad and of course the Donuts will be wonderful for the kids!

Be here bright and early 7:30 a.m. RCE cafeteria.

I can't wait to see everyone at the Donut line.

Mr. O'Quinn

Times are changing!

Your students are changing and growing by leaps and bounds.

We have been having fun with a unit of study this month focused on Seasons and Weather. They seem to really love to talk about Snow. Maybe because we have a four foot igloo in our classroom that they enjoy playing in daily.

Ask your student to show you some of the new sight words in books and magazines they may have at home. The are learning many new words and are able to read and write these words.

The next time you are at school welcome new students Mason and Amilah to our class. We now how 21 students are enjoying working together.

Reminders:

1. your child MUST be in the classroom by 8:00am, or they are tardy,

2. please come and read to our students,

3. homework backpacks coming back the beginning of February.

Have a wonderful day and we look forward to seeing you at school!

Mr. O'Quinn
