Dear Division 16 families,
We have
started our Kindergarten program with enthusiasm! Students are already learning
to count from 1-5 and sing the alphabet in French. Songs and play-based learning
are some of the ways we are learning the curriculum and routines of the
classroom. I will post a minimum of one post per week to keep you up-to-date on
what we are doing. I will also include at least one post per semester informing
you about our themes. For example, September is all about learning numbers
1-10, letters starting with Aa, colours, printing our names and simple patterns.
You can also check this site and the Quadra website regularly for special
events, field trip information and classroom news.
You are invited for an
open house this Thursday, September 19th from 6-7pm in your child’s class (room
107). This is a very informal gathering where your child is going to give you a
tour of their classroom. Please come and introduce yourself to me, and I will do
my best to answer all of your questions! Please bring a FAMILY PHOTO with you so
that we can post it on our family wall!
Please remember to check your
child’s backpack and purple folder daily for important school and classroom
information. Below is a list of labeled items your child needs for his/her
classroom in case they do not yet have them…
1 pair of indoor Velcro
running shoes for the school and gym (please ensure their exterior shoes are
also Velcro, unless they can already tie their shoelaces by themselves).
1
water bottle with your child’s name (leak proof with spout, no screw lids
please)
1 change of clothes in a large clear Ziploc bag with their full name
on it (a shirt, underwear, pants and socks).
1 large backpack (large enough
to carry a lunch bag AND a regular size communications folder for newsletters,
field trip permission forms, etc).
1 box of Kleenex
Refer to the 2013/2014
Kindergarten student school supply list (on the Quadra website and handout given
on the first day) and send these items if you have not already done
so.
Feel free to contact me if you need help with any of the items above.
No child will be denied access to any resources due to financial
limitations.
Hopefully see you on Thursday!
Mme Elise
