I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know your Kindergarteners during our past few days of school. I am so excited to watch them grow over the year.
Our goals for the month of September are to be able to identify all of the ABC's and to write all of the ABC's. So far, we have learned how to write the letters, A,B,C & D. We will do a letter each day until we finish! You will see the completed ABC papers coming home in your child's take home folder.
We also started our writer's workshop. The Kindergarteners have been working on telling stories with their pictures.
Last week, the Kindergarteners developed our classroom rules. They came up with all sorts of rules, but we generalized them all under three main rules: (1) I take care of myself, (2) I take care of my friends, and (3) I take care of my space.
This week we have been talking about our feelings. So far, we have talked about being sad, scared and angry. We talked about how to help themselves feel better and how to help friends feel better when they have these feelings.
During the week we have been going to our specials. On Monday we have Art; on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday we have gym and on Thursday we have music, library and computers. On days that the Kindergarteners have gym it is best if the students come to school in sneakers.
School pictures will be on September 24th.
I can't wait to meet you at back to school night on September 18th. I hope to see everyone there!
Sincerely,
Miss Knauer
