Today, the SK students came home with their Snuggle Folders. Please read the information in the front pouch. The idea of this program is not to be stressful for you or your child rather to give you a few minutes to snuggle and enjoy looking at a book together. Please return the folder with the book inside every Friday. These books will be passed on to other students so please ensure that they come back each week. The kids were SO excited to have homework!
On Tuesdays, the kids will continue to bring their library books home. Please ensure that the library books come back to school every Tuesday. These books should NOT be placed in the snuggle folder. Please keep the library books separate from the snuggle books.
Information regarding Raz Kids came home as well today. This is an online reading program for the students to do at home. We have explored this program at school using our classroom chromebooks and the kids really enjoy it. Raz Kids will not be monitored at school and more of an at home program with your kids this year. Feel free to explore the books and have your child read along with them.
Our letter of the week is the letter "d" and our word is "and". Please continue to practice letter recognition and letter sounds with your child.
In Math, we have been talking about the difference in 2D and 3D shapes and looking at things in the classroom that are cylinders, spheres, cubes etc. This week, we will be going on a shape hunt and collecting objects that match our 3D models.
Our jk friends made pizzas with 2D shapes today. They decorated their "crust" with all their preferred toppings! The goal for this activity was to identify and count 2D shapes. Ask your child what the difference is between 2D and 3D shapes and some examples of each.
If you are planning on placing a January Scholastic order, please do so by Friday, January 17th.
