K2 Kindergarten Note

December 15, 2008


Dear Parents,
I sincerely appreciate all of the pajamas that you have sent into the classroom for our wrapping. I have never done something like this before, but for me it has been heart warming. Thank you for your generosity.
This week is going to be chaotic, but somehow we will squeeze in some lessons. We will be reading Ginger by Charlotte Voake. We will also be working with the letter ‘I’. There will be no new sight words to add to the collection, but please keep going through the words over Christmas. It will help your child very much after we return from the break. In math, we will be working with dimes and counting by tens. During our circle time, we will be busy with Christmas projects. Our Bible lessons will be “The Good Samaritan” and “The Servant Who Did Not Forgive.” From these lessons we will learn how important it is to love our neighbor.
On Saturday, December 20, we will have a dress rehearsal for the Christmas program. Your child is supposed to participate in this rehearsal. We will start at 9:00 am and finish at 11:30 am. Please bring your child to church for this rehearsal. That evening we will have our Christmas program which will start at 5:30 pm. All of the children are to be here for this program. Please have your child come to the classroom by 5:00 pm. We will be going in as a class so you will want to find a seat in the church. Please have your child dress appropriately for this important program. I must correct something from my previous notes. We will sing and sit together throughout the 5:30 program. The children are also expected to sing at the beginning of the 7:00 program. After that, they may be dismissed. However, if you want them to sit through the 7:00 program, that is fine. Please let me know what your pleasure is so that I can plan accordingly. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
On Thursday, December 18, we will have our Christmas party at 1:30 pm. If you have time, please stop by for this fun afternoon. The children get very excited about the party and would enjoy it if you came to be a part of it. Those who signed up for the party, this is when you should bring your treats. Thank you for your help.
Our Christmas vacation will start after the Christmas program. School will resume on January 5. Have a blessed vacation. I will miss your children, but I hope that you have a nice time together.
Mrs. Kronebusch
