Dear Families,
Fall is finally here, and the weather is starting to cool off! yeah!!! Our trip to Lost Lake was a success with all the parents who were able to come and help!
A QUICK REMINDER! PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCES ARE THIS WEEK. WE ARE ON HALF DAY SCHEDULE ALL WEEK!
*** In honor of International Dot Day, and celebrating creativity and encouragement at FCS, Student Council has elected to make Friday, Sept., 27, spirit day clothing as “DOTS”! In lieu of the FCS spirit shirt, please wear clothing with dots: shirts, shorts, socks, shoes, bows.
Character Builder: This week we are still focusing on first time obedience. I am wanting the children to learn that this not only applies at school but at home as well. This is still hard for some, but I trust with practice and patience the Lord will teach each child.
Language Arts: We be reviewing many of our short vowel sounds that we have been practicing in our spelling book. The students are doing amazing with me during our guided reading groups. Although I have chosen some text that may be difficult for them to read, it is the perfect chance for me to see if they are using reading strategies. I was able to attend a handwriting seminar last week and I learned a lot of wonderful information! I hope to try and incorporate this into our classroom soon!
Math: We are still working hard with our subtraction concepts
Science: This week we will be finishing up Unit 1 of living things.
Bible: This week we will be learning about Jacob
Take Home Folders: Please remember to look in your child’s folder everyday. Empty out any work that stays at home. Some folders are starting to fill up with old work, and it makes it hard to keep notes and new work in there.
