Hello Families!
Don’t forget to join us for Back to School Night on
Tuesday, September 16th at 7:00pm!
We
are in need of snack donations for the class. Any healthy snack
would be appreciated! (Crackers, fruit snacks, pretzels, etc. NO CANDY).
If your child needs to eat breakfast at school they need
to arrive no later than 9:00am. We have many more students eating breakfast
this year, and some of our boys and girls are getting to class late because
they are arriving late for breakfast.
Please continue to stress the importance of listening and
not talking when teachers are talking.
We have a large group of 20 this year and the room gets very LOUD. Some of us are missing directions or parts of
entire lessons because they are constantly talking. We haven’t been able to get to as many fun
activities as we had planned because of the constant talking and noises. Your children have plenty of time to
socialize at lunch, recess, and playtime.
We know Kindergarten is a HUGE change from preschool and we try to make
that transition as easy and fun as possible.
This week in Language Arts we introduced letters A, B, C,
D, and E. We will introduce all the
letters quickly in the first few weeks, then go back and study them more in
depth. We learned to read the words “I”
and “am”. The Take Home Book this week
is “Who Am I?” The Take Home Book should
be read at home each weekend. Your child
does not need to be able to read the children’s names in the book themselves,
but should be able to tell you the first letter in the name if you point to
it. We also practiced writing our first
names, rhyming words, and identifying characters in a story.
In Math we worked on counting out loud to 10, counting
groups of 1, 2, and 3, and writing the numbers 1, 2, and 3.
Next week, we are hoping to be more settled in our
routines and begin math centers with games, Science (learning about weather),
and do an art project!
Thank you for all your support!
Enjoy your weekend!
Miss Anton and Mrs. Banker
