Please continue to practice recognizing and writing: sight words, ABC's, & # 1-30. We will continue working on these skills in class. In addition we will continue practicing our phonics skills, identifying beginning sounds and rhyming.

T-Shirts:

We are making a Native American costume. Please bring in an adult sized white t-shirt by Friday of this week. They don’t have to be new, one of Dad's old ones is perfect!

Dress Code: 

The only sweatshirts that may be worn on campus are the OLM sweatshirts. Jackets may be any color but can only be worn during recess time. Please refer to the handbook if you have any questions.

Thanksgiving Snack:

It is tradition here at OLM for the Kindergarten (Native Americans) to host a Thanksgiving snack for the First graders (Pilgrims). We will have a small Thanksgiving snack with Mrs. Meisenheimer's1st grade class 11/20/13. I am asking each child to bring an adult sized white t-shirt to make our costumes.  One of dad’s old plain white t-shirts is fine.  We will be painting them and cutting them.

Operation Christmas:

 As we give thanks for the blessings in our lives let us not forget those in need. Each year the classes at OLM gather various supplies and create shoe boxes filled with necessities and small toys for the poor in third world countries. Please bring in your contribution tomorrow (refer to last weeks notice).
