Dear Mom and Dad:
Today we began our day by looking at our calendar. I learned
that today is Tuesday September 8. Ask me to tell you if I know the number day
for tomorrow. I will be asked this tomorrow during calendar! We learned some
new calendar songs today. These songs will help me remember the days of the
week and months of the year. I will be able to sing it to you soon.
I practiced by cutting skills today! Ask me to tell you what
I cut out today. Ask me to tell you about chicken wings! I should not have
chicken wings (elbows out) when I am cutting. I can practice cutting at home.
We got to play on the playground during school today. We had
a discussion about some of the rules of the playground.
**parents please note
that the playground is scheduled for grades for before school. This week:
Kindergarten has
access to the playground on:
Tuesday – Before School
Friday – Before school
Question of the day: Post on the blog what you did during
centers today.
Love,
Kindergarten
Housekeeping:
Parents
please use the drop and drive in the morning after 8:02 and pick up your child
on the compound at the end of the day.
Parents,
if we could have your child line up outside before the kindergarten entry, that
would be very helpful. There are now signs on the doors. This will allow us to
bring the students in right away. Thank you for your help.
Being independent is a huge skill
children learn in kindergarten. Please encourage your child to Independently
put on and take off their shoes, zip and unzip their jackets and backpacks etc.
Parents please make sure ALL of
your child's belonging are labeled with first name and last name initial. We
have several duplicate backpacks and shoes and this will be very helpful and
prevent any anxiety when your child is looking for their belongings.
Please make sure to sign the
kindergarten forms and return it to the school. If you did not receive forms or
misplaced them please e-mail your child’s teacher.
