Hello families!
We had a short week this week, but it was very busy!
WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON:
Moral Focus: We just started talking about wisdom. We are focusing on making good choices and following the rules. What you can do at home: You can continue this at home by reminding your child to make wise choices, follow the rules and even tell you what the rules are for your house.
Reading: We are still working on retelling stories. The goal is that students can retell a story in sequential order, using details from the beginning, middle and end. What you can do at home: When you read books at home, ask your child what happened at the beginning, middle and end.
Phonics: We have started working on identifying the letter "Ss". We are writing it, saying the sounds and saying words that begin with "Ss". What you can do at home: Have your child practice writing the letters Aa, Mm, and Ss. Take turns naming words that begin with those letter sounds.
Math: We are continuing to work at grabbing and counting objects. We have also started to categorize objects based on their characteristics. What you can do at home: Have your children count objects on their dinner plate.
Social Studies: We are working on understanding how school works and how to help others at school. What you can do at home: Have your child help with dinner- setting the table, cleaning or even cooking. Talk about the importance of working together as a team. Your family is a team!
The Kindergarten team is still looking for anyone who would like to volunteer to help out one day a week to help set up materials for the following week. Thank you!
