Dear Parents,
THIS WEEK WE: worked with mittens. We did some reading and writing about penguins. We have been counting by 2’s as well as measuring items with cubes.
Did you know mice have tails that are different lengths and can be measured? We did it!
NEXT WEEK WE WILL: continue with a winter theme talking about snowy winter days.
VALENTINE DAY PARTY:
Our PTA moms will be hosting a party for our classroom on Friday, Feb. 5th. I don’t know a lot of detail yet but I understand it will have a 50’s theme! If your child wants to make a special container to put their valentines in, please be working on that at home. Use your imagination and each child will have a very unique container! Send to school sometime during the week of Feb.1st. Below is a list of children’s names in our class. They can address valentines to their classmates and hand deliver them before the party on Feb. 5th!
Mason Sophie
Connor Katie
Cody Johnny
Alison Chris
Nolan Erin
Isaac Markus
Alaya Marley
Joshua Kailey
Michaela Apryl
MITTEN TREE: We have a mitten tree set up in our room. With the cold weather the mittens we donate will be very much appreciated. I will keep the tree up for another week and then they will be donated to Least of These. Several brought in mittens, gloves and even hats. Thank you for your support of the community outreach project.
NEW THINGS:
We have started a lot of new things this week and continuing others. Please don’t let this overwhelm you. I want to encourage you to continue with the Fast Start poem. If you need to do it every other night so you can spend time on the bag book that is fine! Do what you can do. The main thing is spending time reading with your child. I have two parents that have volunteered their time for the children to read the bag book when it is returned. Yeah! By the way you can count the time you spend on Fast Start and the Bag Book as a book on the Book Slip! Everyone does not have a Bag Book yet but they will soon!
SNACK: If you have not sent a classroom snack for January, please send sometime next week.
THEME: Snow
Thank you,
Mrs. Donna Mountjoy
FROM OUR ROOM MOTHER:
Kindergarten raffle basket items are needed by Tuesday, April 20th. They will on display at the Spring Carnival April 30th. Now is a great time to buy those clearance items. Sports is our theme.

WEEK IN A PEEK!
January 11, 2010
Dear Parents,
LAST WEEK WE: got reacquainted and talked about our new year. Winter is here and with it the cold weather is upon us. VERY COLD! We read The Mitten by Jan Brett and several other books that had mittens in them. We have found matching mittens, added mittens, and counted mittens by two’s. We are writing a book and introducing the words said and have to our reading vocabulary.
THIS WEEK WE WILL: continue with mitten, snow and possibly penguin activities.
REPORT CARDS: are going home today. Please sign and return the envelope on tomorrow in the Friday folder.
DECEMBER BOOK SLIPS: Congratulations to Mason, Sophie, Connor, Cody, Johnny, Alison, Nolan, Isaac, Markus, Marley, Joshua, Kailey Michaela, Apryl and Alaya for meeting the goal of at least 10 books read for the month. Cody, Johnny, Markus and Kailey turned in 50 books! Good job! You will find your Pizza Hut coupon in the Friday Folder. I know with the holiday it wasn’t always easy to make time to read with your child. It does pay off though. Please continue to read every night and turn in the reading slips as you get 10 books read. If you have not been reading with your child, it is not too late. Start tonight!
BOOK ORDER: There is a Scholastic book order enclosed. Please return the order next Monday with the Friday Folder. Be sure to put the order form along with the money sealed in an envelope. Checks should be made out to Scholastic Book Club. I have also signed up to make it possible to order books on-line. Just go to: http://www.scholastic.com/clubsordering
Our class user name is: MountjoysKClass and the password is: bookorder I have enclosed a note about this also. The cut-off for on-line orders is Jan. 20th.
Letter and Word Rings: Every student needs to be able to recognize all the letters and the sounds they make very soon. Most of the children have mastered this already. I am making a “word ring” for each child. As they “pass” each set of 10 words they will receive a homework sheet. Please have your child make the book and return it so they can get their next set of “word ring” words. I will introduce it to the class this week and we will get started on it. It is so exciting!
BAG BOOKS: I am sending home little books in ziplock bags when I feel your child is ready for this challenge. Please read the book several times with your child. Begin by looking at the pictures and have your child tell you what he/she thinks is happening in the story. Then go back and read it to your child. Then go back again and have the child try to read it to you. The children are at different stages in their reading readiness. Help them where they need it and encourage them. Have your child read it several more times over the next couple of days. When you finish with it, please sign the paper inside the bag and return it to school. I will send you a new book. Please keep no more than 3-4 days so someone else can read that book. I will start that activity next week as well.
MITTEN TREE: We have a mitten tree set up in our room. With the cold weather the mittens we donate will very much appreciated. I will keep the tree up for two weeks and then they will be donated to Least of These. Several brought in mittens, gloves and even hats this week.

THEME: Snow
I hope your family had a wonderful holiday! We are back and ready to learn more about how letters go together. I am excited about what is happening with the children. They are really linking letters with sounds and blending the sounds to read words and write sentences. It is great to see it all come together.
Thank you,
Mrs. Donna Mountjoy

WEEK IN A PEEK!
December 23, 2009
Dear Parents:
THIS WEEK WE: finished our Little Elf book and sent it home. Their handwriting is improving quite a lot when they have the handwriting lines to guide them. Polar Express day was great along with our holiday party. Everyone seemed to be pleased with their stocking. It was full and nearly overflowing. Thanks for your generous input.
NEXT WEEK WE WILL: be gone for winter break. Read lots of books together and enjoy family and friends!
When we come back, we will be reading books about the winter season and especially mittens.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY: I would like for someone to come for about 30 minutes every morning from 8:40 to 9:10 to listen to the children read and check out a new book to them. Think about it over the break. If we have 2 people that can do it two mornings a week, would be great! Let me know if this would be of interest to you.
Community Outreach Project: We would like for everyone to bring a pair of mittens or gloves to put on a Mitten Tree. They will be donated to Least of These to be given to those in need. We did this last year. Least of These is a local organization and was so very grateful for our donation last year.
REPORT CARDS: will be sent home on January 9, 2010.
CARING KID: Cody is our caring kid representing compassion. Congratulations!
SNACKS: We are running very low. Please send for January. Thanks.
THEME: Winter Season
Have a safe and very Merry Christmas with your family!

WEEK IN A PEEK!
December 18, 2009
Dear Parents:
THIS WEEK WE: had Little Elf hearing, smelling, tasting, touching and seeing all kinds of things. We are putting together a book and will finish that on Monday.
We are also measuring various items like our shoes, tables, books etc. with unifix cubes and chain links. You can practice at home. Encourage them to start at one end and line them up next to each other to determine their length.
NEXT WEEK WE WILL: be finishing up a few things and enjoy Polar Express on Tuesday.
CHRISTMAS EXCHANGE:
We will have a class exchange on Tuesday, December 22nd. We are going to fill a stocking for each child! Everyone is asked to bring enough little treats for each child in our class. Examples would be 19 erasers, pencils, pieces of wrapped candy, balloons, bubbles, etc. Things that you might provide for a birthday party as favors. We will have a low key “class family” celebration sometime on Tuesday. Parents are not asked to assist with this one. I know you are busy getting ready for your family celebrations. I will provide some simple treats and they will stuff stockings and receive their stocking. That is also our school wide Polar Express Day! We will all be wearing our pajamas, singing Christmas carols and having hot chocolate!!
END OF SEMESTER: The end of the semester will be December 23rd. I am nearly finished testing each child.
FAST START: I will send home a new set of papers on Monday. You can do the same type of activities with books that you read at home also!
SERVICE PROJECT: Thanks to all that were able to come last Sat. to the nursing home. I think the residents enjoyed our visit and helped to brighten their day!

WEEK IN A PEEK!
December 11, 2009
Dear Parents:
THIS WEEK WE: traveled around the world looking at the traditions that families have in other countries. They really enjoyed taking their passports and “flying” to Sweden, Holland, Mexico, Germany, and Israel. They should have a suitcase full of souvenirs to show you and I hope a little bit of knowledge about holiday customs from those countries.
NEXT WEEK WE WILL: begin a unit on the “Senses”. Each day we will focus on one of our senses. We will come up with some “sense”sational activities.

WEEK IN A PEEK!
Dec. 4, 2009
Dear Parents,
THIS WEEK WE: read several versions of the classic tale of the Gingerbread Man and compared them with each other. They are very much the same but different in many ways, especially, The Stinky Cheeseman. Ask your child about that one. We ended the week by making a couple items to give to residents at the Christian Health Care here in Nixa. Thanks to all that sent money and those that were able to come help. (I definitely could not have done it without you! :)
NEXT WEEK WE WILL: take a trip around the world to five different countries to see how each one traditionally celebrates the holiday season. I will be asking the kids about what their family usually does every year during the holidays. You may want to share with them stories about “Aunt Betty” and “Great Granddaddy” this weekend. Each Kindergarten teacher has developed a special lesson about a country that they will share with all the classes next week. Be sure to ask everyday where they traveled. I am preparing a ”suitcase” and a “passport” for them so they won’t have trouble making it through “customs”.

It is a great time for your child to do his/her Christmas shopping for your family.
SNOW DAYS: Watch for late start days due to inclement weather. On days that it is not safe to come to school at our regular time but the roads become better after “rush hour”, we may go ahead and have school starting at 10:40 a.m. The Alert Now program will call or listen to the television and/or radio on those days.
FAST START: Don’t forget to work on the Fast Start activities. I am seeing progress and I know it helps reinforce what we are doing here. Send back on Monday with the Friday Folder. Monday I will send 2 more poems and then we will take a break from it until after Christmas.
