Weekly Kinder Update 12/10

Hello Amazing Kinder Parents,

As we begin our week here are a few reminders to keep you on track.  We do apologize for not posting an update last week- we had some technical difficulties but we are back.

1.  Next week is our last week of 2nd Quarter and report cards will come home on Friday- 12/21,  as well as some fun Holiday crafts too.

2.  For our last Friday- Dec. 21 we are planning on having a fun PJ day, with popcorn, juice, holiday cookies, and some fun Holiday movies.  We are looking for donations of 24 Capri Sun juices for each of our classes as well as some pre-popped bags of popcorn (Smart and Final)  for all 4 classes.  If you are able to donate please let your teacher know- it will help us out greatly.

3.  Please remember that snacks needs to be sent everyday.  Often we have at least 10-15 kiddos without snacks and that makes for a long afternoon.  It can be as simple as a juice and a banana, apple or even crackers and cheese.

4.  Our School Christmas Store opens this week- information will come home this week about this great shopping opportunity for our littles.  See below for more information.

Weekly Kinder Post for 11/26

 

Hello and Welcome Back…

We hope your Thanksgiving Day was filled with family and yummy food.  As we start our week here are a few reminders…

1.  HW packets will be sent home today- please note make sure that your kiddo writes their name on their HW packet.  Often they come back without names and then your kiddo does not get credit for their hard work.
2. Please remember Raz Kids needs to be done daily and with consistency.  As we look over our weekly reports we are finding that kiddos have not been on in over 12 days….  Our end of the year goal is a Level E/F…  if your kiddo is still on Level A… you need to get reading.
3. APEX continues and please remember this is a great fundraiser for our school.

Hello Amazing Kinders,

As we begin our 8th week here are a few reminders.

1.  Don’t forget that starting Sept. 13th through the 20th we will be having Parent Teacher Conferences with early dismissal at 1:30.  Please plan accordingly for pickup on these days as teachers will be meeting with parents.

This week our HW packet will look a bit different.  During Conference time we often minimize our HW as we begin to wind down the quarter.  This week there will be a reading log to fill out daily in addition to practicing letter fluency daily.  Remember that our goal is for our kiddos to know all letters and sounds by December as well as read daily for 15-20 minutes.
3. This week and next week our school will have a Scholastic Book Fair- a great opportunity to stock up on some fun books going into our Fall Break.  Below is more info about the book fair.
