HOME LEARNING CHOICE BOARD:
I have sent the September/October Choice Board to both you and your child, so that you can take a look at it before we actually begin using it. The students will be required to choose four activities each week. On Friday we will have a Home Learning Share Time in which the students will be able to share what they have done for home learning each week. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to send me an email with your questions.
SOCIAL STUDIES-CULTURAL BELIEFS & VALUES:
I would encourage you to start talking about your family’s cultural heritage. This week your child will be bringing home a questionnaire, which will require them to ask you a few questions about how they got their name. This is not due until next Monday. I am looking forward to hearing all about the origins of their names!
FOCUS TOOLS:
Mr. Ward has given the class a few focus tools to use in our classroom in order to help the students to focus better while listening in class and while concentrating on his or her work. We only have a few, so the students must take turns sharing the focus tools. Many of them would like to use a ‘stress ball’, but we only have four. I would suggest that if they really need a focus tool, you might want to buy them one of their own to use in class.
NEWSLETTERS & EMAIL:
I cannot stress the importance for you to use your Panther Apps in order for me to keep you abreast of happenings in 4JK. These will include reminders, curricular updates, classroom happenings, etc.
Kindest Regards,
Ms. Joni Kerr
