In January we will be working on number concepts: recognizing the numbers, printing the numbers, and understanding 'how many.' The Junior Kindergarten students will be working on numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The Senior Kindergarten students will be working on numbers 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
Many children are having difficulty getting dressed by themselves at school. Please encourage your child to get dressed by him/herself and practice getting dressed at home. Please make sure your child has an extra pair of running shoes at school. They will not be allowed to wear boots or wet shoes in the classroom.
All students will also be participating in a drama and dance workshop at the beginning of January. A dance instructor will be coming to the school to instruct the students in dancing and putting on a show. It will be a lot of fun! Please make sure your child pays the $6 for the workshop and is at school on the day of the workshop. Check the attached calendar for your child's session.
We will also be having a special fundraiser for the Future Island School at the end of January. The school is in Offinso, Ghana and educates over 450 students. Every year St. Jude's raises money for the community as they have undergone many hardships and are extremely grateful for all that they receive. We thank you for your wonderful generosity.
