    Dear Parents;

    Here are some activities that are going on in Kindergarten in


    October.

    Themes
    During the month of October, we will focus on colors, fire safety,
    healthy choices, and Fall.

    Language Arts
    This month students are learning to read, write, and hear the
    letters Ss, Mm, Rr, Tt, Bb, Nn. They are also learning the sight
    words: I, see, like and am. We are busy reading, writing, and
    drawing about colors, fire safety, pumpkins and fall. The children
    are actively engaged and immersed in print through read-alouds,
    independent reading time, shared reading, journals, poems, class
    books and student made books.

    Math
    Kindergartners are learning to read, write, count, and use numbers 0­12.  At home, 
    help your child to count, recognize and write these numbers. Working together with 
    your child, create a simple number line to refer to at home. Our next math unit will 
    focus on sorting and classifying objects by color, shape, and size.  You can help your 
    child get ready for this chapter by sorting socks, coins, or toys at home.

    Science
    Kindergarteners will be observing guppies and sowbugs in class.
    Support your child by exploring the new science website at
    www.fossweb.com/CA at home.
    Homework
    Just a reminder that Kindergarten homework is sent each Thursday
    and is to be returned by the following MONDAY. In addition, please
    make sure to read each night with your child for at least 10
    minutes. Remember to log your reading minutes into your Book-It
    October Calendar so your child can receive his/her free pizza
    certificate.

    Technology and the Arts


    Kindergartners have music class with Mrs. Gruener on a weekly
    October 2008

    basis. We have also started weekly Kindergarten Music and


    Movement on Fridays with all the kinder classes.

    Fun Fitness
    Fun Fitness is our P.E. program run by parent volunteers. Fun
    fitness days are good days to wear tennis shoes and comfortable
    clothing to school. The fun fitness days are as follows:
    Rm 1 – Tuesdays, Rm 2 – Thursdays, Rm 7 – Wednesdays, Rm 29 –
    Tuesdays,
