Dear Parents,
Today began with a beautiful sunrise….did you see it? My picture didn’t do it justice, but I am
thankful that God gave us such a wonderful reminder that HE is the creator. 
We continue to practice our letters, making sure we are always
starting at the top instead of the bottom.
Please be aware of this when they are writing at home….top to bottom,
top to bottom! J
Last week we created our very
own “Space Man”, to help us keep a good space between our words when we
write. If you have big popsicle sticks
at home, your firstie can create one to keep there too! If you need one, just let me know and I can
send one home.
SPACE MAN
We began our NWEA testing today! This is all done on computers in the computer
lab and I was so proud of how well they did today. Remember this is just a small snapshot of
their progress and we will be testing three times this year. I am looking forward to seeing how much they
grow throughout the year.
We continue to our “Brain Breaks” a few times a day and we
are all enjoying them so much. There are
cool characters who focus on different tasks. For example, “Maximo” works on stretches with
us and “Mr. Catman” works on brain exercises.
We dance (they are getting so good with the Cha Cha slide (knowing their
right and their left….it’s hard at first!)) and we run in place too. Again it is a great way for us to get up,
shake our bodies a little, and then sit down and focus again.
We learned a song that we will sing at the end of each day
(ask your firstie if they remember it) because it is such a good reminder of
God and what He has done for us.
“Go My Children With My Blessing”
Go my children with my blessing, never alone.
Waking, sleeping, I am with you,
you are my own.
In my love’s baptismal river, I
have made you mine forever .
Go my children with my blessing, you
are my own.
Please start studying with your
kiddo for our memory test on Friday.
Blessings!
Miss Gallagher
