Dear Kinder Parents,
Welcome back!!! We hope you all had a fantastic Winter
Break. We are with the batteries recharged to continue having fun and learning
every day in our Kindergarten World. We wish you the best of the best in this
New Year!
This week we are going to be working with the letter
Jj. The vocabulary words that we are going to be focusing on are: jelly, juice, jar, jump rope, jeans, jeep,
jacket, jet, jacks, jellybeans, jewelry, jaguar, jug, jeep and jack-o'-lantern.
If you have any items at home that begin with this
letter, send them over with your child and we will be discussing them in class,
we will display them on a table and we will return them back on Friday. The kids get excited to bring things from home.
Some stories that we are going
to be reading with the children are:
But no jaguars love it more
than Jeremy! We will join Jeremy as he
makes jam at the Jungleberry Jamboree!
The story begins with a sweet brown bear taking a berry picking
adventure with a curious little boy. As they go about their berry-finding
expedition, the illustrator depicts each scene with enormous imagination and
creativity.
This is
the turtle that slid into the pond and ate the snake that dropped from a branch
and swallowed the fish that swam after the frog -- JUMP, FROG, JUMP!" This
infectious cumulative tale will soon have the young frogs you know jumping and
chanting with joy.
Muffy is having a Spring Fling party complete with the
Egg Push, the Bunny Hop and the Jelly Bean Hunt for the grand prize of a huge
chocolate egg! Everyone wants to win, but poor Arthur is so slow at everything.
While the others fill their bags, Arthur finds one, then two, ever so slowly.
Who will win the Jelly Bean Hunt?
We are back with sight words. During the month of
December we practiced all the 35 sight words the children should know up to
now. The sight words that we are going to be introducing this week are: an, look, up, play, said. Please take
15 minutes every day to practice them at home with your child. It is very
important for all of them to recognize all the sight words we have covered in
class so far. Once they can recognize sight words it is going to be a lot
easier for them to read books.

In Math we are going to be introducing the concept of BEFORE.
We are going to work with addition problems to 10 and reading a bar graph. Please practice the following skills at home:
Addition
I.1 Addition with pictures - sums up to
5
I.2 Add two numbers - sums up to 5
In Phonemic Awareness we are going to be working with
oral blending of phoneme by phoneme. c-a-t = cat
We are going to be wrapping our unit of Weather. We
will be writing about the importance of weather and how to dress up for every
kind of it.
The children in charge of donating the materials for Kindergarten Kafe
this week are Sebastian Ortez and Tammy Rodriguez Thank you
