Hello Primary Pups!

A Note from Mrs. Bagarozza (Mrs. B)

Hello Primary Pup Families,


I hope you had a great weekend. Happy March!! Time sure is flying by!


February's month of friendship was fabulous. The Friendship Ball was a great success. We will share a video in the next newsletter with some highlights. There are a few pictures shared below.


As always we have many more exciting things coming up this month. Be sure to ask your child about special readers visiting their classes this week. We will also have a visit from Mr. Scott for "Wacky Wednesday". Don't forget to wear your tie dye! We will be wearing PJs and making pancakes on Friday. Check out the rest of the themed days for the week listed below.


Important Dates Coming Up:


Tuesday, March 4th -> "WPS Loves to Read" - Show your school spirit and wear our school colors (red and blue) with pride! Maybe you can even rock your new socks or bow from the PTA.

Wednesday, March 5th -> "Wacky Wednesday - Read in Color" - Wear tie-dye, get ready to rock with Mr. Scott, and let your imagination run wild!

Thursday, March 6th -> "Rock Your Socks for a Reading Adventure" - Wear your craziest socks and step into a world of stories!

Friday, March 7th -> "Cozy up with a Good Book" - Wear your PJs, enjoy some pancakes for the letter P, and get lost in a story!


Thursday, March 13th - Teeth Screenings - look out for a permission slip from Nurse Amanda this week!

Activities to Reinforce Letter/Number Identification

A few things to consider...

  • Start with capital letters

  • Start with letters that your child can relate to… something they find interesting or connect with (ex: first letter in their name or family members’ names)

  • Only introduce a few letters at a time (3 to 5)

9 activities to try at home...

  1. Letter or Number Memory Match

  2. Alphabet or Number Go Fish

  3. Alphabet or Number Bingo

  4. Musical Letters or Number- name the letter or number you are on when the music stops

  5. Letter or Number Hide and Seek (hide letters or numbers around a room - when child finds them they name the letter or number)

  6. Build the letter or number out of… playdough, goldfish, pipe cleaners, stamp it with dot art, legos, etc.

  7. Trace the letter or number in… shaving cream, whipped cream, pudding, apple sauce, sand, etc.

  8. Tic Tac Toe - practice with two letters or two numbers

  9. Letter Fly Swat - write a few letters or numbers on large paper or outside with chalk, have child run and swat letter or number with fly swatter when you name it
