CLASS BOOK~
Today we began sending home a class book called, Peekaboo. Guess Who?, which includes all of the Pre-K students in our class. Your child has one evening to share this class book with you. After sharing it with you, your child should sign his/her first name on the last page of the book and return it in the "Book Buddy" bag to school the next day.
Happy Reading!
Today we introduced "have-to" activities at the Work Stations. A "have-to" task means that the child must do that particular task when assigned to that Work Station. Below are description of the "have-to" tasks at Work Stations for the next 2 weeks......
At the Word Work Station, children color in our 3 previous passwords according to the "key".
At Math Magic, children are given a tree with a number. Children add leaves to the tree to match the number.
When finished with a "have-to" task, children place it in the basket pictured below for the teacher to review.
BUDDY TIME!~
We visited our buddies today! With our buddies, we did an activity to help us get to know our buddy(ies) better and to help them get to know us better. Be sure to ask your child to share his/her "Get To Know Your Buddy" sheet with you.
Our new Star of the Week is Lianna! Today Lianna told us some of her favorite things including: pink (favorite color); horse (favorite animal); and riding a bike (favorite activity). Lianna also shared photos with us and her teddy bear, which she told us how to say in Spanish! Thank you for helping us get to know you better, Lianna!
We have officially begun our study of "Colors". We have many lessons, activities and experiments planned to help us learn more about colors.
CALENDAR~
We added 2 more special dates to our October calendar. This Friday, October 10th, is Spirit Day at Columbus Academy. Students can wear any shirt, T-shirt or sweatshirt with a Columbus Academy logo. Dress code should still be worn from the waist down. Go Vikes!
On Thursday, October 23rd, our Pre-K class, along with our 2nd grade buddies, will travel into the Academy woods for special stories and s'mores around the campfire. This annual event in the Lower School is done by our Lower School Librarians. Children do not need to wear dress code clothing on this day. Rather, please dress your child in clothing appropriate for "hiking" into the woods and sitting around the campfire.
