Sept 9- The Listening Walk

Agenda:
1 Read 20 minutes
2 Bring back forms if you have not already. Please send them in the green communication folder.
3 Fresh Air Friday Journal entry for homework if not finished in class. Please look in the green communication folder for the fresh Air Friday journal. If your child has brought their journal home, they need to complete it at home and bring in back in their communication folder on Monday. The assignment was to list five sounds they heard and the objects that made the sound. 
**A note about Homework in Room 5**
Daily reading is always on the agenda list, reading to self, aloud or with an adult is one of the most helpful activities you can encourage your child to do. A Problem of the Week will be coming home Mondays and handed in by Thursday of each week. Any other homework that is sent home will be tasks or assignments that they did not get finished during class time. Check the communication folder for any unfinished items.
4 Please send the green communication folder back and forth daily.
