TK Week of August 21st-25th

Thank you to all of you who were able to join me for Back-to-School Night. It was wonderful to see so many of you! Life is busy, and if you weren't able to make it I completely understand. I'll get your packets to you, and you can ask me any questions you might have.

We had a second fabulous week in TK! We began meeting our ZooPhonic animial friends. So far we've met Allie Alligator, Bubba Bear, Catina Cat, Deedee Dear, Ellie Elephant, Gordo Gorilla, and Francie Fish. (If you check your blue pages in our back-to-school packet you can quickly catch up with your TKer, so you can have fun with these actions and sounds together.)

We began our first Second Step lesson this week: Welcoming Others. The homelink page that went home in your cutie's Thursday Folder has great information to help you reinforce this important skill of welcoming and talking to others.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend together!

DATES TO REMEMBER:

Monday, September 4th - Labor Day (No School)

Friday, September 22nd - Jog-a-Thon (Let me know if you can help! :)

October 16th-20th - Fall Break (No School)

TK Week of August 15th-18th

We've had a wonderful first week in TK! We're learning classroom routines like carpet time, group time, choice time, and figuring out what a line is all about.

This week was also filled with big kid things like practicing to use tape, glue sticks, scissors, and even a stapler. (They LOVED the stapler! :)

I'm looking forward to seeing parents this coming Thursday evening for Back-to-School Night. Our time together will be 6:00-6:20pm.

Another big event next week is our beginning of the year Book Fair. A flyer went home yesterday in our Thursday folder. Our classroom time to visit the fair is this coming Friday at 10:10am. If it works for you to come help your cutie at that time that is great! (The more the merrier during the book fair.) If you want your TKer to get something at the book fair, but can't join us I completely understand. You can just give me his/her money in an envelope with their name on it that morning, and we will be sure to help her/him. It can be a little confusing for our little ones to figure out what a book fair is all about, so if your cutie isn't going to purchase anything at the book fair this time (a bookshelf can only hold so many books :), we will have an alternate fun activity for your TKer to do instead during this time.

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
