TOMORROW is Stephen’s Backpack sale. If you would like your child to participate please send in some change (loonies and twonies) for them to spend at the sale. They will also accept cash donations. All of the money raised this year will be used to purchase backpacks filled with items like books, toothbrushes, and toys for children that live on the streets in Calgary. For more information about this program please go to the Stephen's Backpack Society at http://www.stephensbackpacks.com.
Today in Kindergarten we read another favorite story. In one class we learned about animals and chose our favorite. In two classes the stories were about dragons. I bet I can tell you about the story we heard. On Monday two copies of the Early Year Evaluation went home. Please sign one copy and send it back to the school and keep the other copy for yourself. If you have questions please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teacher. For those children with a red or 2 or more yellow flags your child’s teacher will be contacting you. Scholastic orders due November 28th Thursday is letter H – happy item hunting! (more information below) NO School Friday November 25th Reminders: LETTER DAYS It will be done each Tuesday and Thursday we will be exploring a new letter of the alphabet. For letter A some of the items that we had were: Apple air plane ace asparagus Aloe A book with the title that starts with A the movie Atlantis We are inviting students to bring ONE item for each letter day from home to add to our Alphabet Museum. We will be doing a variety of learning activities with the items such as sorting, counting, and writing to help us investigate the alphabet. Have your child take charge of the activity by letting them find the item on their own, putting it in their communication bag and bringing it to school. Here are the upcoming letter days: November: 24 H December: 1st I 6th J 8th K 13th L 15th M We have also been watching an alphabet video for each letter. The website we use is “Have fun Teaching” and then look for letter videos. Winter Concert: The winter concert is on November 30th. There will be two performances, one in the day and then an evening performance. The times will depend on whether your child is morning or afternoon Kindergarten. AM shows 10:00 and 5:30 (time change) PM shows 2:00 and 7:00 The grade 1 and 2 classes will be split between these times. We will be able to move children for the evening show so that you will only need to attend one performance. If you find that your children are at two different times please let your child's teacher know. For more information please check the school newsletter on the website. Have a good evening The Kinder Team
