We had an exciting first week of kindergarten! Here’s what’s coming up in September…
Reading
Writing
Our writing workshop will begin with drawing and writing
letters, words and sentences. We write
every day, but we will hold the writing in school in your child’s writing
folder. You will take it home when you
come in November for your child’s conference.
Math
In math we are learning position words like top, bottom, above and
below. We are counting and writing our numbers 0 – 10. We are sorting objects in different ways. We are completing and creating patterns. Practice with your child at home – count grapes or veggies, count cars
or flowers – have fun.
In science, we will learn about the weather and the seasons. We will learn about American symbols and
famous Americans in social studies.
Weekly homework will come home September 8 and will be due back on
September 15.
ESOL stands for English to Speakers of Other
Languages. This month we will be evaluating students whose families use a
primary language other than English in the home to determine which students are
eligible to receive ESOL services. We work with students both in the
classroom and in small groups to teach the academic language needed to succeed
in school.
