Hello everyone and welcome to the first week of school. I am very excited to have the kids in class and I am looking forward to getting to know them and having them get to know each other. As we strive to keep everyone safe, please remember to complete the daily attestations each morning prior to coming to school.
This week we will dive right into our Mother Goose Time curriculum. This month’s theme is Friends and Feelings. Your child will learn new ways to make friends, talk to each other, be respectful of each other’s differences, and express their feelings. We have fun art projects to work on as well.
We will be reading How Do Dinosaurs Go to School, Spot Goes to School, and My First Day of School. We will talk about being in school, separation from our loved ones and reassurance that they will see mom and dad soon. We will watch the read aloud Llama Llama Misses Mama. We will spend time learning the rules for school, the playground and fire drill safety.
During Jesus time, we will learn about Jesus and how much he loves us. We learn the songs “Jesus Loves Me” and “Jesus Loves the Little Children of the World”. We will also start to learn our morning prayer and lunch time prayer. In addition, for the month of September, we will learn the “Johnny Appleseed” prayer.
Please remember to join Classdojo as I will start using it this week. Going forward, all communications from me will be posted through the Class Dojo app. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to me through class dojo or via email [email protected].
Have a blessed week.
