We are off to a great start in Kindergarten.  I'm looking forward to working with all the boys and girls in KM.  They are a super bunch!  We have been busy making new friends and learning some rules for the classroom. Ask your child to tell you some of their new friends names and see if they can remember what the 5 rules of the classroom are.

         We have started learning some Zoophonics signals and will be working on the letters Aa and Bb this week.  At home, have your child look for these letters in their environment, practice printing the letters and find objects that begin with the letters Aa and Bb. Another activity to do at home is to have your child work on printing their name using an uppercase letter at the beginning and lowercase for the rest.  In Writing, we are learning how to tell a story by drawing detailed pictures.  Try this at home.  In Math, we are learning about sorting and about patterns.        

        We have visited Mr. Stewart.  He has taught us how to be Whole Body Listeners and Bucket Fillers.  Ask your child to tell you how to be a Bucket Filler.
