Kindergarten Update!

Things are moving right along in Kindergarten!
You will have noticed the Yellow Message Folders coming home, please have a look at them each day and return them to school for future messages.

Winter is here! Please ensure your children are dressed to be able to play outside every day. If you haven't already sent in appropriate indoor footwear for your child, please do so.

Math:
In addition to working on our hands-on math skills, we have begun working on writing our numerals. You can encourage your children to interact with numbers on a daily basis while you're out and about. Eye Spy Numbers can be played anywhere from the grocery store to the living room couch!

Language Arts:
Kindergarten students are working on learning their letters through hands on learning centers and written work.  While you are reading with your child, spend some time challenging them to find individual letters within words or on the page. You can discuss the sounds they make and what the capital and lower case letters look like.

Students have begun working on some sight-word books. The students learn from reading the books as a class, with partners and individually. From time to time, your child will come home with a sight-word book in their Yellow Message Folder. These books will be theirs to keep at home. Have your child share the book with you!
