Newsletter 2014
I hope you all had a wonderful
Christmas and an enjoyable break with family and friends.
Also, I would like to thank you so much for
the lovely Christmas gifts. Your thoughtfulness and generosity was very much
appreciated!!
This month our classroom themes
will be The North and Winter Fun.
The students will be involved in
a number of crafts and activities relating to The North and Winter. We will be
growing a crystal garden, making an edible igloo, and constructing a real-sized
milk jug igloo in our classroom. For this real-sized igloo project, the
students are invited to bring 4 L plastic milk jug containers anytime over the
next two and a half months. Please rinse out carefully and send with the lids
on. Also, students will need to bring an apple for Tuesday, January 28th for
the edible igloo craft.
The Kindergartens will be
focusing on the letters of Hh, Jj, Kk and Ff. We will be practising rote
counting to 50, recognizing numbers 1-10 and reviewing printing numbers 1-5. We
have just briefly touched on “Exploring Patterns” and will continue with this
unit. There is a home activity “Patterning” sheet, in your child's mailbox, if you would like to
reinforce this at home. Other skills to be practised and learned are phone
numbers, birthdates and the printing of their last name.
Points
To Note:
.
Please ensure that your child is dressed warmly for play at
recess times (extra socks and mitts, neck
warmers and/or scarves are a good idea).. Students need an apple for Tuesday, January 28th.
. Hot lunch is chicken soup & a bun for $3.00 on Tues., January 14th.
If
you have any questions or concerns please let me know.
Have
a super month! Stay warm!!
