I cannot believe it is November already! Time really flies!
I hope that everyone had a nice Halloween and a relaxing weekend!
With the cold weather upon us, please make sure that your child has all of the clothing they will need to stay warm. Can you believe that we have officially entered mitten season?
Also, if your child does not already have indoor shoes, please make sure that he/she has a pair. It is preferable to have a pair that they can leave here. It is essential that the children be able to put their shoes on independently.
A reminder that this Wednesday, November 5th is parent-teacher interviews here at SJA. I would love to meet with you and discuss your child's progress. Please call Mrs. Guilfoyle at the office if you would like to schedule an interview with me. The interviews will be held between 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm on that day. If you would like to arrange a meeting on another day or a phone interview, please do not hesitate to ask! We can arrange something that works for all of us!
Prayer
Every day, in the morning and the afternoon, we say a prayer together as a part of our beginning routine. Check it out! Please review the prayer with your child. The morning class will be saying the prayer over the announcements next week! I will send home the prayer on paper so the students can practice over the weekend.
Have a great week everyone! As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns!

We have a busy week ahead of us! We will be practicing new word wall words, learning new letter sounds and continuing our conversations about story elements. We will talk about words in the _op word family. We will also start talking about the importance and significance of Remembrance Day.
Ask your child about what he/she is learning this week!

A note about Snuggle Books!!
I try and send home books that will challenge the students and help them feel successful. The books are also chosen to help them work on specific strategies that we are leaning about in class. The picture here shows the strategies listed on the students reading cards. Depending on your child`s reading level, they are using different strategies to solve unfamiliar words. Ask your child which strategy they are working on! If the books are too difficult for your child to read in one evening, please keep the book for longer! The books only need to returned when your child has practiced and read the book independently!
Have a great week everyone! As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns!
