Atwell's Awesome Crew
We are off to a great start!  I am so excited to be working with your child this year. Starting with this week we will begin our Book in the Bags. These bags should come home with your child every Monday and Wednesday along with their homework. You will need to read these with your child until they can point to the words and read them to you sucessfully. Your child will need to bring the book back the following day and Mrs. Aldridge will listen to them read. If your child is successful they will receive a different book on the next Book in the Bag Day. If your child is having trouble they will bring the same book back home to work on some more. These books will start off easy and become progressively harder. If your child brings home a picture book you and your child can make up the story using the pictures as clues. Be sure your child gets in the habit of touching the word as you or they read it. This is very important in their learning to reading.  In Math we will keep working with number formation of 0-5 and practicing one to one correspondence with these numbers. Children will also work with sorting objects and classifying them. In Science we  work with our Farm Unit while incorporating the season of Fall and Pumpkins.  In Social Studies we will continue to study the topic "All about Me" and our families. 
Language Arts will consist of learning about our Zoophonic Friends and taking a quick overview of the alphabet as a whole.  Thanks for all your support.  I look forward to a very successful year with your child.
