TK Week of January 27th-31st
NAMES ON COATS, Please - With cold mornings that have quickly gotten warmer this week, lots of coats were left outside. So, I was hoping that you could make sure your cutie's name is in the inside of her/his jacket(s). That way it's easier for coats to make it back to our classroom if they do get left outside.
Holiday Cheer Program - For those of you who ordered a digital copy of our TK Holiday Program, I found out the video was sent to your email around Wednesday from Rattler Pit. If you ordered a DVD/BluRay, they arrived in my box this afternoon. I can give it (them) to you Monday morning. IF YOU DIDN'T ORDER, AND WOULD LIKE TO NOW, YOU STILL CAN. Just let me know.
Darn, No Assembly! - We were very excited to go to our first assembly today, but the presenter never came. We're hoping all is well with him, and that we get to see him soon.
Valentines Day - TK will be celebrating this special day on THURSDAY, February 13th. A purple note in yesterday's folder has our class names for Valentines, as well as a short note to clarify when we hope Valentines come to school.
100th Day - The highlight of TK this week was our 100th Day! It was filled with counting out 100 delicious snacks, hopping and jumping to 100, building with 100 cups, and dotting 100 "gumballs" in our 100th Day gumball machine. And, on top of that we got to parade through 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade in our fabulous 100 Days of TK hat!
Attributes - One of TK's favorite games this week as Attribute Train. It was fun watching them pick something to go on the end of the shape train, and then explain the one, two, or three attributes those shapes share. They picked out those attributes like pros!
Letter J - Jelly Jellyfish's J has been our focus this week. On a rainy weekend it might be fun to create a salt tray (or a pudding tray - yum!) to practice some TK J's. (L,F,E,T,I,H,C,O,Q,G,S would also be great!)
I hope everyone stays dry and has a wonderful weekend!
