The kindergarten team has decided to celebrate the letter of the week " P ",
by allowing the students to wear their pajamas during the last day of school ( 12-22-11 ), prior to our Holiday break. I will not be able to attend,as I am leaving town the 21st. However, I have been assured that this will be a very fun day for the students. Again, I thank each of you for being such wonderful supporters of our class.
Happy Holidays to you and your families.

Kindergarten News
It's hard to believe that we are almost half way through the school year.
I am also AMAZED at how the students of class 24 are progressing. I remember the first day of class- About half the class was crying- all wanting their Mommys. Now many of them are reading and doing basic adding and subtracting.
Thank you to all the wonderful parents of my class. You have all been very supportive.
Happy Holidays

Kindergarten: Week Three
This week we are working on the letters K, L, M, N and O. We have been developing our " Animal Letter Books ", each day we discuss the animal associated with the daily letter. We then cut, paste and color the animal and add it to our letter book. We are also working on our counting skills. This includes recognizing and writing the number 1 - 5.
I would ask that you be working with your child on their name writing skills. I believe that each of them have room for improvement in this area.

First week of the new school year !!!!
Hello Everyone,
We are well into our first week of school and the students are adjusting nicely. I am surprised at how well they have all adjusted so quickly. As I stated at the open house last week, I had never taught students quite so young. To be honest, I had never quite understood kindergarten students or the teachers who taught them. What I have found in a very short time, is that I enjoy the amazing attitudes of both kindergarten students and their teachers here at Telesis. All of them seem so eager to be here. It's been a wonderful experience thus far. I also wanted to thank you parents for the numerous that you donated to our class. This is greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Mr. Thomas

It's hard to believe !!!!
It is truly hard to believe that our 2010-2011 school year is winding down to an end. I have had so much fun during this school year. I have also learned a great deal from my AMAZING students. Each day they remind me to laugh more, judge less, and to forgive more easily. I wish each of them, and their families a wonderful summer.
Thank you.
Mr. Thomas

Telesis Expansion Fundraiser
New Expansion Project Fundraiser - March 25-27 & April 1-3
At first this was slated for just March 26, but it has expanded to two week-ends in a partnership with GraceArtsLive performers and staff: Telesis Families and Friends are invited to a concert by Eric Kunze (pronounced "Koon-zee") and Gina De Luca, students of none other than our very own Grace Ann, who has offered to share a portion of the profits of 6 concerts to assist with our Expansion Project. Eric and Gina run Big City Broadway, which is affiliated with C.C.A., the California Conservatory of the Arts, a pre-professional training ground in the arts for talented young people, grades six through twelve. They have performed on Broadway and produce a concert of Broadway hits called "Broadway's Best.” That is the concert they will perform on stage at GraceArtsLive theatre with one difference: Eric has offered to come to Telesis to teach Intermediate students several back-up songs that, with parental permission, they will accompany him on stage. Check out Eric’s website at www.erickunze.com. Tickets will sell for $25 for adults and $12.50 for children.

A Great New Year !!!!
Dear Parents,
I have to say that the " New Year ", 2011 has started off very well for Class 29. Our class has settled into a very good routine and we are all working as a cohesive team. I have to say that personally, I wake up most days ( 99.9 % ) eager to get to school to begin our current lessons.
These students are very special young people and they never cease to make me smile with their questions and statements. I also wanted to thank each of you for your support.
Best Wishes,
Mr. Thomas
