Fire Safety Week

This was our first walking trip of the year. It was GREAT! All the kiddos followed the rules, listened carefully, and were very excited about visiting our local fire station. The Firefighters gave us a tour of the site, let us explore the trucks, and modeled safety procedures we should follow in our homes.

Welcome Kinder Families

Welcome families!

This blog is for you to enjoy with your little one and to get a glimpse into our class. It has many educational links that you can use to provide extra-fun support at home. I will be posting pictures, short video clips, and other information that I hope will be helpful and fun.

The kiddos are settling in quite nicely to the class routines and are working very hard. I already see so much growth in many of them. Kinder can be a challenge with all the demands placed on our little ones. Just remember that it does take practice (sometimes lots of practice)! Be patient, provide an area for them to do their homework, check their folder daily for any pertinent information, reminders, and other notifications.

Thank you to all the parents that are providing so much support at home and ensuring that your little one completes their assignments. It is by working as a team that we will be able to help your child reach his or her full potential.

Here are the newest Kinders for 2014-2015.

Valentine's Day

We had so much learning, eating sugar, passing out cards to our buddies, and reading lots of books. Thank you parents for all the donations. They made their day that much better. I included some pictures of our day and their favorite books of the day.

 Our Heroes! 
Nuestros Heroes!

 They used their name to create a color pattern.
Usaron su nombre para construir un patron de colores.

They used the digits in 100 to create a picture.
Usaron los digitos en 100 para construir un dibujo.
 

And because time goes by so fast, take a good look at them now before they are a lot older.

Y porque el tiempo vuela, mirenlos hoy, antes de que sean mucho mas grandes.

Pass by our writing bulletin to read all about what we will be doing at 100.
Pasen para ver el buletin de escritura, donde ellos cuenta todo lo que haran cuando tengan 100 años.
