Have a great Labor Day weekend! I look forward to starting centers on Tuesday. 

We learned about the reading strategy cause and effect and even played a fun matching game. Cause and effect happens in daily life as well as in books we read. As you and your child read, ask, "What happened and why?" The answer to "What happened" tells you the effect. The answer to "Why?" tells you the cause.

Next week we will be working on Engage NY Problem Set 17. Continue to help your child know the math facts up to ten.

Word Wall Words: Please add these new www to your child's flashcards, word wall or list of words that they should practice and know: all, one, once, too, two

We have a few activities coming up for which I will need a jar of peanut butter, a bit of jam, celery and currants.Please let me know if you can help out with any of these items. 

I look forward to seeing you at Back to School Night on Thursday. Please check the RDM website for specifics.
