Farmington Kindergarten Newsletter
September 28th 2012


What We Are Learning
Continue practicing letter sounds
Review Months and Days of the Week
Practice reciting the alphabet and counting to 30
Review letters LlOoGgHhTt, Pp, Aa
Practice writing the letter Nn and produce the sound correctly

Reading News
After your child knows all 26 letter sounds, they will begin to work on reading non-sense CVC words and will get a reading book.  If your child does not know all 26 letter sounds, please spend some extra time with them every night.  This is a skill they should know by now and if they don’t they will start to get behind in class.  

FRY Words
Fry words come in sets of 25 words.  When we feel your child is ready to start FRY words (knows letter sounds and can blend CVC words), we will send them home.  Some students will be receiving fry words after fall break!  Way to go!  Keep up the hard work!  

Spelling Words
On Monday after Fall break, your child will bring home spelling words.  Please make sure to practice those every night.  Spelling tests will be given on Friday mornings.  

Important Dates
Tuesday 10/9:  PTO Meeting at 6:00 pm
Thursday 10/11:  Parent/Teacher Conferences
Friday:  10/12:  Snack Break

Homework Packet
Your child will receive a new homework packet on Monday night.  Please make sure you place this packet in a safe place and do the Tuesday and Thursday night homework.  This is additional homework and they will continue to have nightly reading homework.  If your child misses more than 3 homework assignments in one month, they will have to serve an After School Detention.
