Kindergarten News for the week of September
17th- September 21st
In the upcoming week we will be learning the
letter Hh as in hat, hippo, and
horse. Letter Hh is a consonant. As part of our study with the letter Hh we
will have a “Hat Day” on Friday, September 21st . Students are asked to wear a favorite hat, a
funny hat, or even a homemade hat. You
can be creative with this if you want!
Students will be able to wear the hat all day—we do just ask that
students do not share hats. Show and Tell will be with items that begin with
the /h/ sound on Thursday! Watch for
your brown bag!
In Math we will be
learning to create pattern block designs, cover designs using pattern blocks,
sort by color, and act out story problems.
We have been practicing writing our
first names. Please watch your child as
he/she is writing. Be sure to check if
letters are beginning at the top, not the bottom and also guide him/her to use
the lines when forming the letters.
Capital letters should only be used at the beginning of your name.
The PTO store will be open on
Mondays. Kindergarteners are asked to
shop only on a Monday from 8:25-8:45. Please
do not put school store money in
your child’s folder. (Teachers will
not see it until after the store closes.)
Students should keep it separate
in book bags where they can reach it easily for shopping before homeroom.
Reminders:
There will be a meeting on Thursday- September 20th
at 6:30 pm at the pavilion behind our elementary school for anyone interested
in helping to plan our kindergarten fall festival. We need lots of help to make this day
successful for your child!!
Boxtops for education and Campbell’s
labels will be collected at any time. If
you have any at your home, then please send them to school with your
child. The box tops and labels help our
school to earn extra money.
Monday
will be Day 5 on our special class schedule.
Please try to follow the schedule I gave you in your child’s yellow
folder! Also, please label coats and sweaters your child is wearing to
school! I found several sweaters this
week and no one recognizes them!
Please return “All about
Me” posters the week after you receive them. I am sending 2 home per week and
we will discuss them on a Friday.
Have a Great
weekend!
