Dear Families,
December 12, ,2014
Happy Holidays! The children are having wonderful time learning about different holidays, winter solstice and the changing weather. They have been working very hard practicing for the upcoming Holiday Concert on Wednesday, December 23rd at 9:15 a.m. The concert will be in the multi-purpose room. K-3 will be on the RIGHT HAND SIDE of the stage (if you are facing the stage). I hope you are all able to come and enjoy the show! You will have the opportunity to meet your child’s 4th grade buddy after the show. Next week, the kindergarten teachers have some fun activities planned for the children.
On Monday, December 22nd we will be learning about Holidays around the World. Mrs. Green is going to teach a lesson about Hanukkah, Mrs. Mitchell is going to teach about St. Lucia Day and I will be teaching about Kwanzaa. We will be traveling to the different classrooms to learn different traditions around the world,
On Friday, December 19th your child can wear their PAJAMAS to school. This is probably the most loved kindergarten event. I will be reading the POLAR EXPRESS to the class and we will go on a magical ride to the North Pole. Your child can wear the warmest PJ’s for this special day!!! (Bath robes are ok too but please no slippers they are too slippery for school) Thank you in advance!
Our letter of the week was “Ww”. Our tongue twister was, “William and Wendy wiggle like worms.
The children are still working hard in math and writing and I am very impressed with the math we are doing. We are adding in many different ways, using dominos, pictures and numbers. You can practice with your child at home using small manipulatives Thank you all for your help with the math homework. The class is very excited about what we are learning!!
Please remember it is getting cold outside. We are still outside for recess in the morning. Be sure to bundle your child up with hat, mittens and scarves. Also, remember if it is snowing or expected to snow, please send your child with snow pants so that they can go outside to play.
Also, a reminder that drop off is between 8:00 and 8:15am. There is no supervision on the playground before 8:00a.m. Thank you.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and are able to find some quiet time during this busy time of year to enjoy with your child.
Fondly,
Mrs. MacIntyre
