Week of September 21

Kindergarten News

This week in Phonics we will be learning the letter Gg and its sound as in goat. Please review the sounds and how to write the letters we have already learned. We will have Show & Tell for Gg on Wednesday September 17. Check your child’s folder for Gg Handwriting homework on Wednesday it will be due Thursday September 24.

We will continue our “Color of the Day”. The colors for next week are as follows;
Monday- Orange
Tuesday- Purple
Wednesday- G Show & Tell
Thursday- Yellow
Friday- Your Favorite Color


We finished Chapter 1: Sort and Classify in Math. In Chapter 2 we will be leaning about Patterns. Please review pages that come home each day.

We started our Science Unit about Trees. We took a walk to observe and compare the different types of trees we have near our school. The class was very excited to begin our very own Science Journal.

We have already completed three weeks of school and many students are familiar with their bus numbers, however, we are asking that students continue to wear their bus tags or at least be sure to have them handy inside their backpacks. If your child has lost his/her bus tag then please write your child’s name, the teacher’s name, the bus number your child rides to and from school, and any other information you would like to include (address, phone #, child’s destination, etc…) on an index card or piece of paper and place it inside your child’s backpack. This will be very helpful for teachers on bus duty and for any substitute teachers or bus drivers. Thank you for your support!

Parents, please check folders daily and remove all “KEEP” items. It becomes difficult to handle folders with too many papers inside (both for the students and teachers). Thank you for your cooperation and support!


Have an Outstanding Weekend!
Mrs. Borden & Mrs. Jones
