Week
of September 8, 2014
Dear
Parents,
The
children are all doing well and adjusting to the routines and structure of our class.
Continue to work with them on cutting on the lines and writing their names with
a pencil.
BACK
TO SCHOOL NIGHT: SSJ will be hosting their Back To School Night, this Thursday,
September 11. The evening will start in the Church with a presentation by our
Principal, Crystal Smith. After that you will proceed to our classroom where I
will go over our curriculum and TYKE events. This evening is for parents only.
Please read the Principal’s Newsletter on the SSJ website for more information
about this special occasion.
SNACKS
/LUNCH: Please tell your child which food is for their snack and what they
should eat at lunch. Please save cookies and candy for home snacks.
Religion:
We will be talking about the Bible Story, “Four Fishermen,”
emphasizing
that Jesus is their friend. We will also learn about the lives of the Saints
and other Bible stories throughout the year.
Math:
We will be identifying position words, front, back, above, beside below, behind
and next to.
Science:
We will be talking about the Ape Family.
Reading
Readiness: We will be talking about the parts of a book, title, cover, Table of
Contents, and recognize that illustrations reflect the meanings of words
written on a page. We will continue to talk about rhyming words also. We will
be learning nursery rhymes throughout the year. I recommend you go over rhymes
at home and read Mother Goose rhymes to your children.
I’m
looking forward to seeing you all at Back To School Night.
Have
a great week!
