Dear Parents,
We are racing through the school year and everything in the kindergarten classroom is going quite well. The children are doing an amazing job with their reading and the math is good too. There is one self help skill that would be great for you to work on at home. The children need to learn how to tie their shoes. I know some of them have Velcro shoes and that is fine, but eventually, we need to teach them how to tie. At this time of the year, I ask them to do more and more on their own so that they are prepared for next year. Of course I understand this will take time, but I thought we could all work on it and see what happens. Thank you.
This week we will be reading the story Jump into the Jungle by Theresa Volpe. Along with this story, we will work with the letter J. I also will add three more words to the sight word stack. They are ‘do,’ ‘not,’ and ‘what.’ Please keep working with these words. The children do very well with the reading and one of the reasons why is due to the practice that they get at home with the sight words. You are doing a great job parents! In math, we will continue to work with the numbers one through twenty. During our circle time, we will talk about nutrition. We have talked about our bodies and now we need to address what foods are good for us to eat. Our Bible lessons will be “Wicked Farmers” and “The Wedding Clothes.” From these lessons we will learn how Jesus warns his enemies concerning their unbelief.
Today, you will be receiving a flyer concerning the Disney movie. I sent home a letter last week about this and now we need firm commitments from you parents as to who will be able to drive for this field trip. Please remember that if you drive, you must have taken the worker training class in order to come along. I would appreciate having the forms in by Friday so that the proper plans can be made. By the way, the cost of the trip will be $5.00 per person.
This Wednesday evening, the kindergarten children will be singing in the 5:00 service. Please have your child come to the kindergarten room by 4:45 pm for a warm up. After that he or she will be excused to sit with you throughout the service. Once the service is completed, you are welcome to join us at the soup supper. Thank you in advance for bringing your child to sing.
I believe that is all for this week. I hope all goes well for you.
Mrs. Kronebusch
