4K Families,
Valentines Day and the 100th day of school were fun in 4K. The kids had a good time sharing and opening Valentines, and we also had fun making the 100 Day Crown which was some good cutting practice as well.
This week Tuesday, we begin our fifth time through the alphabet. As of today, February 19, we have 27 out of 34 students meeting their end of the year goal for upper case letter recognition. That is amazing! We should be able to easily get to 100% by the end of the year. Reaching the goal early really helps ensure that the students will get that knowledge into their long term memories so that they won't forget anything during the summer. Way to go, 4K!
During our fifth time through the alphabet, we will be focussing on writing the letters neatly and with the proper strokes. We will also be watching Captain Seasalt and the ABC Pirates for each letter and reading an AlphaTales book for each letter of the alphabet. It will be fun and different.
In math, we are talking about coins, counting, and continuing to practice recognizing and writing numbers.
We continue to learn about emotions, feelings, and how to help keep our friends and selves safe at school by being kind and keeping our hands to ourselves. It is a big part of our 4K day.
Please remember there is no school on Friday, there is a teacher inservice day.
Thanks for reading,
Miss Gilding
