October turned out to be a great month for everyone. We really settled in and got to work learning our letters and sounds. We even began to write some words. Almost all of the students can read the color words and we can all write our first name with a capital at the beginning and lowercases through the rest. The students pledged to be peaceful, respectful, and responsible. Our class is really like a family. Sometimes we disagree but we work it out because we care about each other. We have learned the Bayless B's. BE Respectful, BE Safe, BE Kind, BE Responsible, BE Cooperative. Your child should know what these words mean, what it feels like when they do it, and what it looks like to do it. Seventeen of the twenty-three students completed their pizza reading logs! I hope we can all complete these this month. It is our goal to improve every month and help in building a love of literacy with our little ones. |(book cart books and library books can be used on this form.)

I really enjoyed meeting and discussing your child's progress at their conference. I really felt like I got to know more about you and I hope you feel the same. I am learning all about your children and what they need to be successful in the classroom. I promise to do everything that I can to help! Please e-mail me or send me a note if you have questions or concerns.

Thank you, Amy Davis
