Week of September 13th

Welcome back to another wondeful wekk of kindergarten!
If you would like to come and volunteer in class, or join us for fieldtrips throughout the year, you need to get your fingerprints done in the front office. I would like to recommend doing it through the state though there is a cost. This gives you a fingerprint clearance card that can be used for 7 years!
Can you believe we are already half way through the first quarter of school? Time is just flying by! I will be sending home the mid-quarter progress reports today, Monday 13th. Please read and sign the attached sheet and send back to school.
Mrs. Molina, our art teacher, has asked that we bring in an old shirt that the students can put on when we will be painting. It will go over the clothes they are wearing so a big shirt is probably a good idea. Please make sure that you write your student’s name on the tag of the shirt so that there is no confusion about whose shirt is whose! We will probably use these throughout the year as well during painting time.
We have been practicing writing our names and writing the letters l, o, and g. Please work on this with your student at home! I will send a homework sheet home on Tuesday for the students to practice their names and letters. It will be due back on Thursday. We are slowly working up to homework packets.
This week we will also be learning about the letter “G” and “H”. How to write it correctly and what sound the letter makes. I would like to start a picture wall of items that you and your student might find that start with the letter “G” or “H”. Please send in any pictures or items that you think would be a good addition to our wall!
Looking forward to another great week!
