Dear Parents,

Hello! Welcome to a new week (because, really….doesn’t it feel like Monday?!?) and a new month!  We are slowly starting to get into the swing of things....how are things going at home?  Is it getting any easier to get your firstie up for school?  

Here are some “jitter glitter” pictures from the beginning of school!  I had one firstie tell her mom that she slept SO WELL, because of the “jitter glitter”!  ;) I love that!

We are reviewing on how to write our letters of the alphabet (uppercase and lowercase) and today we practiced writing our spelling words.  Do you see our little helper that we use to space out our words correctly? 

He’s SPACE MAN……!  And his only job is to help firsties put space between their words!  Ask your kiddo about him and what he is used for.  

In Religion, we have been talking about Creation.  Your kiddo brought home bags that have little pictures that they colored.  Each picture represents something that God created on particular days.  I told the kids to quiz you to see if YOU remember what God created on what day.   Remember, it only took God 6 days and He rested on the 7^th day…. (Even though there are 9 pictures….). How’d you do? 

Then the firsties were asked to draw their favorite thing that God created.  I saw some pictures of flowers, moms, pets, beaches, etc…everyone had something different!  

Just a reminder about dress code! Please double check with the parent handbook (which is on our school’s website www.trinitymonitor.org  or if you aren’t sure, you can always ask me!  Thank you!

Tomorrow we will be having our first prayer partner activity.   

Did you send in your firstie’s information sheet?  Again, this is just for reference and no gifts for the prayer partner are required.  As soon as they have all been turned in, they will then be dispersed to the prayer partners.  Please watch for the information sheet to come home soon.

Have a great evening!

Blessings!
