Wow! What a busy fun-filled time of year. The children are settling into school with our daily routines so nicely. You should be proud of their effort. This week we have introduced reading and writing workshop. The main goal of the beginning of the year is to develop the reading and writing stamina in the students. The class has been up to this challenge and are reading and writing independently for at least 15 to 20 minutes. We will continue to increase our stamina! Keep an eye out on homework that will begin on September 15th. I know the children are anxiously awaiting to come home and demonstrate what they have learned in school to you. Thank you for sharing your children with me each day.
