Welcome to our class blog!
Our first full week is complete and we are starting to establish a routine. We have done a lot this week to ease into Kindergarten and have been learning about the rules to help this year to be successful.
This week we learned about our Fundations program and your children were introduced to our writing grid we will be using throughout the year. You'll be hearing a lot about having to use our sky, plane, grass, and worm lines when writing our letters and numbers. We read several books this week, including David, which follows the title character throughout the book as he gets in trouble for breaking the rules. As a follow-up to the book we made our own Davids as vowed to try our best to follow the rules.
This week we also began to write the number two using our grid. This is something that I will be sending home to practice for homework this week.
We also began learning our color words this week by starting with the color red. As we learn each color we will start to build a color book that each child will take home.
A couple reminders....
Please return all paperwork that I had given you during orientation from the office and myself.
Please remember to send a snack in with your children each day, water is the only drink permitted.
Please remember to send in your $15.00 cash sunshine fee for items I purchase throughout the year, including pictures that are developed for their end of the year scrapbooks.
Please check their binders daily for important information.
No school Monday because of Labor Day.
I will be getting a volunteer calendar together soon so please be looking for it in your child's binder.
Have a great long weekend.
