  What we learn this week! Literature: Students read “The Kissing Hand”. We talked about Chester’s first day of school. Ask your child about him and something special about his hand. Math: We discussed the difference between a letter and a number, paying close attention to the letter “o” and number zero. History/Geography: We learned that our classroom is a community and we are part of it. Students identified their two teachers, Mrs. Bernal and Mrs. Thareja.

Looking forward to learning more next week!

Dear families, I am so proud of these scholars! Their first week with Spalding phonograms went well! They are so excited about doing the hand motions! Thank you for your support at home! For the next several months, we will be going through each of the seven continents of the world and many of the countries within them. We started with our own continent and our own country this past week. Next week we will move on to Mexico. I love the continents-study because we have an opportunity to learn about different cultures from around the world. Every year, I have several students in the Kindergarten class who have parents from different countries. It is wonderful to invite parents to come in and share a presentation about the countries they are from. If you are from a country other than the United States and are willing to give a short presentation (15 minutes) about your country, please email me, so we can set up a day for you to share with us. Parents have brought in pictures, costumes...
