Dear Kinder-Parent,
This week, Kindergarten will attend our first school mass on Thursday. Please be sure to send your child in his/ her school uniform rather than P.E. attire. We will only be having P.E. on Tuesday this week.
Homework has begun! These packets will go home with your student every Monday. You will not need to return the packet until Friday (Thursday this week, due to no school on Friday). I ask that every page is colored whenever possible. The directions may not call for coloring, but I encourage our children to develop those small motor skills any opportunity they get. On the page with their name written, I ask that Kindergartners practice writing their name once (or more if possible!) on each line. Please remind your child to use “monkey tails” and only one capital letter.
We have so many exciting things to learn this week! We will be discussing rhyme words and reciting nursery rhymes. We will continue to explore position words in our math packets. If you would like to practice with your child at home, our text has a fabulous web-site that has activities for your child to perform. Simply go to http://www.sadlier-oxford.com/math, and click on kindergarten, chapter 3.
Our book of the week is “Cat’s Colors,” and we will be reciting fun color poems. Each day we have a different featured color. I encourage you to dress your child in accessories for the color of the day (i.e. hair clips, ribbons, bracelets, etc.) Red will be on Tuesday, blue on Wednesday and green on Thursday. Please note that this is the only time where accessories will be OK.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions! My email is RNB1432@aol.com. My door is always open after hours and I am always happy to have a visitor!
Love,
Mrs. McGee
