Welcome to Kindergarten! We are so looking forward to getting to know your precious little ones during this first week of school. We will be working on establishing routines and expectations and getting to know one another; because of this you will not see as much reflected in the subject areas on the calendar for the week.

Over the course of the next few weeks we will be learning about the Fruits of the Spirit. Monday is an introduction to all and then we will study one per day until all are covered. The Fruits of the Spirit will be used for classroom/behavior expectations as well as being incorporated into academics, such as discussing whether the character of a book was showing the fruits.


Math:
  •   Please make sure that you are doing the introduction lessons (the hands-on teaching portion) at the bottom of the page, not just the worksheet pages.We have marked your child's workbook with a flag so that they can quickly find the next lesson. Please make sure to move this flag to the next uncompleted page after each lesson. 
  • No Math Buddies this week
Reading:
  •  We are skipping the first 26 lessons in Ordinary Parent Guide to Reading and instead teaching the single letter phonograms through All About Spelling. The All About Learning Press phonogram app is available on all tablet/phone platforms!
  • Please go over the yellow phonogram cards (26 alphabet letters) at least once or twice EVERY DAY.
History:
  • Please complete the "God Made Only One Me!" sheet with your child and return to school on Wednesday for sharing. Please write or spell any words that your child needs. It is not an expectation that they write the words, but they should draw themselves. :) Your child may also bring one special-to-them item for show-and-tell to share while they share their "God Made Only One Me!" paper.

Science:
  •  Next week we will begin our unit on insects! You are welcome to check some books out from your local library to enhance our unit at home. You may refer to the syllabus for details on what we will be focusing on during this unit.
Memory Work:
  • Our memory poem for this quarter is "Jesus Died Your Soul To Save." We will practice this poem daily in class. Please practice daily at home as well.
