What a great first week!

We had a great first week! We learned about each other and made new friends. We learned about school manners and the way to behave in class, the hallway, assemblies, the lunchroom, and the playground. We reviewed our alphabet, numbers, kindergarten words and how to take care of our bodies.

This week, we will be celebrating different colors. Don’t forget to have your child wear the color of the day! We will also be learning about poetry, rhyming and the -at word family. In math, we will be learning how to compare numbers and decide which is more or less. In science, we will be learning about sorting and classifying. The children will also be doing some testing on Thursday, September 8. Please have them eat a good breakfast!

Thank you to those who have volunteered to bring snacks. We still have some days available if you didn’t get a chance to see the list. In September, we have the 9th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 28th, and the 29th. If you are able to help with any of these days, please email me at theresa.christensen@jordan.k12.ut.us. Thank you!

I had several parents sign up to help in the classroom and on field trips. I will need help in the afternoons from 1:00 - 2:55. Please let me know if you are able to help on a particular day.
I need two parents who are willing to be our room parents. They will help plan parties for holidays. There will be a room parent social on Friday, September 9 at 1:45. Please let me know this week if you can commit to being a room parent.

We introduced Mrs. C’s Share bag on Friday. Each Thursday, one child will bring home the Share bag. They can bring two items that fit in the bag that tell us about who they are and what they like. Please watch for it!
