Mrs. Smith’s Class August 27, 2010
A peek at our week:
We are settling into a routine. This week, we have learned about the short a families of –at and –an. We have sorted pictures and words and practiced writing these words. Also, we have worked on identifying characters in stories and telling about characters. We are finishing our “All about me” unit and I am very excited for you to view your student’s work at our “Parent Information Night.”

Clothespins
We use clothespins as our warning system. Students get three clothespins each day and every time I give a reminder I take a clothespin. I do this because it is a visual clue for me and the students about how many warnings the students have had. This system has helped a lot with behavior.
STAR folder
Please put any papers or notes in the STAR folder. I do not look at the Friday folders. The students put their own work in the folder and return the empty Friday Folder to their mailbox on Monday.
