what sound this letter makes. Have your
child cut out one small picture
from a magazine or newspaper that begins with the letter “J.”
MATH: We are learning the numbers 6, 7, 8, 9, and
10. We will practice writing our
numbers, breaking the numbers up into parts like 2 and 4 make 6 and counting
out counters to make our number of the day. We are also working on making
graphs and number lines.

are still practicing making frog jump letters and corner starting letters using
chalkboards, magna doodles, and mats.
Remember: all letters start at
the top! Keep working on F, E, D, P, B,
R, N, and M. We are getting better at
making L, K, H, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z which are corner starting letters.
Science/Social Studies: We
are continuing to look at the four seasons of the year! The colors of the leaves are beautiful! We are continuing working on manners and what
Fisher CATS looks and sounds like at home and in the community .
Help Student Success: We use the word Quality Work at
school. When your child brings home a
project question them on their work. Ask
them if they did quality work and have them explain why it is or is not quality
work.

pants show up during the winter. Keep practicing buttoning and zipping with
your child. We believe that it is
important for children to dress themselves. Our recess time is limited to about
15 minutes, so practicing at home will help the children get outside in time
for recess.

Goal: The safety of all students
is a concern that we share. Our goal is to create a safe pick up and drop off
spot for all students and their families. By being patient and following a few
simple rules, we can accomplish that goal.
· All drop off and pick up by
car will occur on Pleasantview Road in the cutout area.
· After dropping off/picking up their child,
parents are to immediately move into traffic allowing other parents to drop off
their child. This is NOT a parking spot. Drivers must remain in the car.
· Cars MUST be in the cutout
area for students to get into their car. Students will not be allowed to enter
the street to get into their parent’s car.
· Do NOT double park on
Pleasantview.
· Above All: Be Patient, Be Patient, Be Patient!

you do to make your child’s kindergarten year a successful one. Have a great weekend!
