Week 3

Dear TK Family,

There is a lot of excitement in TK as we are beginning to pick up the pace with our curriculum and class routines. We are proud of our students and grateful to every family for your continued support of your children’s education and spiritual development.

For those students who attend Daycare, we would like to encourage dropping off the naptime bags to the Daycare facility on Monday morning before checking-in to TK. We are in the process of streamlining the transfer of the students to Daycare after our school day and the little ones struggle to carry all of their belongings across the parking lot. Please remember to take the naptime bags home at pickup from Daycare on Friday, so the bedding can be washed and returned on Monday mornings.J

This week we will learn the following:

*Continue review of school/classroom routines

*Our school and class rules

*Behavior expectations

*Emergency procedures

*Our teachers and friends

*Religion – Chapter 2

*ELA – Letters F through K

*Math – Numbers 0 through 10

*Shapes

*Calendar

*Theme: Sharing

*Social Studies: Patriotism/American Flag

*Songs

As we progress with our curriculum, please be aware that we are in the introduction phase of our Alphabet with Upper and Lowercase Recognition. As we progress in the school year, we will be focusing on the Alphabet in more detail, including sounds and site words.

Reminders:

1)      This week we will be participating in our H.O.P.E. drive in which families donate canned and dry foods for those in need. Please fill the bags that will be sent home on Tuesday with as much as you would like to donate. Upon return to school on Wednesday, we would like all bags to be emptied onto the picnic tables outside of our TK classrooms. The empty bags can be returned with your student at check-in. Thank you in advance for any donations and supporting our young students with the act of giving to those in need.

2)      Also, any money that is sent to the school must be sealed in an envelope and labeled with the student name, grade and payment information (School Pictures, Color-Run, etc.).

An electronic copy of his newsletter will be posted on the TK website.

Thank you for trusting us with your child’s education!

God’s Blessings,

Mrs. Leslie  Paragas - TK
Ms. Carolyn Faber - TK-A
