Hello Parents,

Were halfway through the month of October! I can’t believe how fast the days are going!

We are continuing the second theme, “My Family” and the start the second unit called “We take care of each other.” Central Focus: I love my family and they love me. Knowledge Focus: students will learn about family members, family roles, and different qualities of families. Social-Emotional Focus: Kindness. Vocabulary words include: caring, cousins, feelings and love. Math words include: length, longer, longest, shorter and shortest.

We will be learning the letter Dd, the color purple, #6 and diamond/rhombus. We will be reading the books “Mama Zooms”, “My Day from A to Z” and “Too Many Tamales”. For Jesus Time, we will continue learning about Abraham and how he is blessed through the use of books, videos, and class discussions. For our sensory centers, students will be putting farm animals in “mud” and washing them off.

I will be putting together an online class book in order to get to know our classmates a little better! Please include any pictures you would like to include. Also, please send me a private message on Class Dojo or email answering the following questions about your child:

  2. What do you do for fun at home?
  3. What do you want to be when you grow up?
  4. What is your favorite color?
  5. What is your favorite animal?
