WELCOME FALL!
Thank you to all parents for coming and meeting with us this past week for conferences. We enjoyed sitting down with you and sharing your child's progress, as well as, getting to know each of you a little better. It is important that we work together as a team in your child's education.
We will be testing next week for report cards. Below is a list of skills that will be tested:
Recognition of upper and lower case letters
Writing capital letters
Sight words
Recognition of numbers 1-10
Writing 1-10
Counting to 25
Recognition of 2D shapes
Sorting
Comparing objects (taller/shorter, heavier/lighter)
Writing name correctly
We will complete our study of animals from A-Z this week and take a field trip to the zoo on Friday, September 29th. We will be sending home a form on Monday for you, as a parent, to fill out if you will be going with us on Friday. We need lots of parents to help on this trip.
We sent home our first kindergarten project of the year this week. Please help your child turn this pumpkin into a "character pumpkin" and return to school on Monday. Be creative, google it. We are looking forward to seeing what great ideas you have come up with! These pumpkins will be put in "Our Patch" in the hallway.
For the month of September, we have been learning all about apples. We know the parts of an apple, how an apple tree looks in all four seasons, and have learned that a lot of things can be made from apples. This week, we will be celebrating Johnny Appleseed's birthday with some apple tasting and experiments.
SOME DATES TO REMEMBER:
September 29th- Zoo Field Trip
October 2-6- Fall Break
October 12- Family Chapel
October 13- Vocabulary Parade (8:30-10:00)
Have a wonderful fall weekend!
Mrs. Gee and Mrs. Woody
