Just a few reminders:
- Now that we are in our second month of school I highly encourage ALL parents to drop their children off at the door and allow them to enter the building independently. It is good for your child to complete their morning routines/tasks at school on their own. They can do it! There are staff available for direction and encouragement. It can be difficult for other parents and students when they notice children still walking into the building with mom or dad. It also makes goodbyes more difficult. A big part of Kindergarten is developing independence and taking responsibility for their learning. We will fail - -but their will be help and support along the way!
- Parents should not come into the building to pick up their children or cut through the carline from the parking lot to get their children. We ask that everyone is respectful of everyone’s time and our community effort to keep ALL our children safe.
- School starts promptly at 8:30

*Please have your child read and re-read the pre-decodable and the decodable books that are sent home.

However, it is still good practice to have your child read and discuss these books with you at home.
MATH
This week we are working on identifying, representing, and writing numbers 6-10. Students will also be working on the concepts of same and different through sorting activities. Each week students work in their Math Journals. Our Math Journal work begins with an open ended question that provides an opportunity for students to use multiple strategies for problem solving. Students are then asked to record their work and discuss how they solved the problem.
