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
