What to tell your kids...
Jon White sent this to all of the teachers at BPS. I thought that I would share this with you.
What to tell your kids...
Dec. 17th
It’s hard to believe that this is the last week before our Winter break. This week, we are working on the letter Y. We work on naming the letter, the sound it makes, and handwriting. I won’t be adding any new sight words this week, however we will be reviewing all of our previously learned sight words. I have some fun math activities planned this week such as snowball measurement and making patterned bracelets. I will try to keep Monday- Wednesday as normal as possible. Thursday and Friday will be full of Holiday fun! Don’t forget that Our Holiday Party is Thursday at 2:00. Our book swap is Friday along with PJ/ Movie day. We plan on watching the Polar Express! I absolutely love my job. Teaching your child is my pleasure. I have grown to love each and every single one of my students. I thank you for being such involved parents! Have a Happy Holiday and a Merry Christmas!

December Update!
December Update!
The Kindergarteners have been working very hard! We have been reviewing many math concepts. We have begun to solve simple addition and story problems. I will be introducing simple subtraction soon! In Science, we have been learning about Earth. The kids have had a chance to interact with real fossils and they LOVED it! We have talked about what the Earth is made up of and how we can care for our Earth. We continue to work on letters, letter sounds, letter formation, sight words, rhyming and blending sounds every day. They kids love reading simple texts. I’ll be sending some of our old mini books home very soon.
I hope your child has told you about our “Elf on the Shelf.” It really brings out the kids imagination! The children names our elf Lollie Pop.Every morning the elf is found doing another silly thing in our class. The elf has been found fishing, reading and writing us messages. The children have been writing about the elf. Our writing is coming a long way! Keep reading and writing at home!
Report cards go home this Monday, December 10th.
Please check out the pictures below to learn more about what we have been up to!
