Good afternoon KA families,
We’ve completed our first full week and are really getting in the swing of things now! We have met all of our specialist teachers: Ms. Alvarez and Coach J (PE), Mrs. McMurray and Mrs. Rivord (music) and Mrs. Mallahan (library).
This coming week we will be focusing on the letters Mm and Aa. We will learn the sight words “can” and “we.” In science we are learning about our five senses, and will be doing an apple investigation next week. In religion, we have been studying God’s creation and the story of Noah’s ark. Our social studies lesson focuses on kindness.
Reminders:
- Folders: Please make sure you check your student’s folder each day, and send it back to school in their backpack. Any notes from the teacher or the office will come in the folder. On Fridays, your student will bring home their completed work from the week. Homework packets also come home on Friday.
- Homework! The first KA homework packet went home today. Each homework packet is due the following Friday. Please note there is a daily reading log as well as a math and reading page.
- Orange Ruler: the turn in day for envelopes or online donations is Sept. 22. The family picnic and Fun Run will be Sept. 29 (students can wear orange on this day!) Our class is doing great toward our fundraising goal! If you haven’t already signed up online or sent emails to family and friends, please do!
As always, if you have any questions or concerns please let me know!
All my best,
Mrs. Katie White
Kindergarten teacher
