A Week in Review:
Reading Workshop – In reading workshop, our students are discovering the learning benefits of rereading. They know that they can learn even more but reviewing what they’ve read and taking a closer look at the pictures. They are learning to connect the pages in a book by saying the words “and then” as they turn each page.
Writing Workshop – In writing workshop, our students are learning to add detail and label their illustrations. They are learning to problem-solve when they get “stuck”.
Math – In math, our students are engaging in hands-on activities to reinforce numbers 0 – 5 using dice, five frames, and cubes. They are also sorting letters to spell the number words o-n-e and t-w-o.
Religion – On Monday, we visited the church and reviewed behavioral expectations for mass and on Tuesday we attended our first school mass! The children made us proud as they demonstrated a prayerful attitude.
Executive Functioning – Our students have learned so many routines already! They greet us in the morning, return their black folders, then put their things away, wash their hands, and get ready for a great day!
Other News:
Child of the Week – Information explaining Child of the Week will be sent home in your child’s black folder this coming week.
Daily Snack – As a reminder, we ask that you send a snack, packed outside of your child’s lunchbox, to school each day. Our lunch is held from 10:50-11:30, so we will have snack time in the afternoon.
Photo Sharing – Just a reminder to check out our twitter accounts for fun info and photos!
IT’S GREAT TO BE A KINDERGARTNER AT SFX!
