Community Helpers

Captain Jeremy Prince with the Graves County Sheriff's Office visited Amy Cheek's preschool class at Farmington Elementary as part of a unit on Community Helpers. Captain Prince brought his K-9, Kilo, to visit with the class. Prince talked about what he and Kilo do to help keep the community safe. The friends enjoyed watching Kilo open the car door by himself and getting to pet him. The activity helped the students understand that law enforcement officers are friends of the community, and they do not need to be afraid of them.

Blue Ribbon School – WE ARE WILDCATS

What We Are Learning
We have learned the letters l, 0, g, H, t, and P. Please ask your child about what he/she is learning each day. We have really enjoyed learning and reading about farms.

Upcoming
Next week, we will learn all about the letter A. If you did not send your assigned color of apple to school today, please try to send those on Monday. We would love for the students to be able to taste different types of apples and taste some different foods made from apples. We will also do some cooking. If any of you would like to make your favorite apple dessert to share with the class that would be greatly appreciated. Please just let us know in advance. We will also continue blending words next week. Please practice these: log, hog, lot, hot, got, tot, pot, hop, pop, top, lag, hag, hat, pat, tap, at.

Fall break-October 3-7
Book fair-October 10-13
Parent-teacher conferences and report cards-October 13

What We Are Learning
We have learned the letters l, 0, g, H, and t. Please ask your child about what he/she is learning each day. We hope you were happy with your child’s mid-term. If you have questions, please see your homeroom teacher.

Upcoming
Next week, we will begin the letter P, so we thought Monday would be the perfect day for pajama day. Wear your favorite pajamas and be prepared to tell us what sound begins the word and the letter that makes that sound. Also, we will be learning about farms next week, so on Thursday we will be walking to Wilferd farms. This trip will not cost any money, but we may need a few parents to help us get there and back. We will continue blending words. Please practice these: log, hog, lot, hot, got, tot, pot, hop, pop, top.

BRAG BOARD
This section each week will be to congratulate students. Students’ names will be in bold the first week and will remain on the newsletter for a few weeks. Names will be taken off as more students are added. Congratulations to these super smart, hardworking Wildcats.
