Weekly K5 Newsletter


January 3rd, 2010
Dear Parents,
Happy New Year!  I hope that all of you and your families enjoyed your 
Christmas and I wish you many blessings in the new year.
Mrs. Wilson and I would like to thank our students and parents for the 
thoughtful and heartfelt Christmas gifts and wishes.
We really enjoyed the Christmas break.  It was nice to relax and get ready 
for the remainder of the school year.  We both are looking forward to seeing 
our students and watching them continues to grow spiritually and 
academically. It is such a gift to be part of this wonderful time in their 
lives.  Thank you!

Reading:
We will be starting Theme 5, "Whatever the Weather".  This week will 
introduce the consonants k and b, and the high frequency words me and for.
We will continue to practice the short vowels a and i.  The short vowel o 
will be introduced during this theme.

Please try to have your children practice reading and spelling words from 
the an, ad, at, ap, am, ad, in, it, ip, im, in, it, id word families.

Math:
We will finish Chapter Six - "Solid Shapes".  We will then start a new 
unit, "Numbers through 12".

Social / Science
Weather.  I am going to incorporate science with our reading series.  I am 
particularly excited about teaching students about snow because I am going to 
also incorporate math (symmetry and measuring) and religion ("Jesus Loves Us 
Snow Much! and we are all unique like a snowflake).

Nutrition:  I am very excited about the Nutrition lesson plan that I have 
developed for the course I had recently taken. I can't wait to teach the 
students about My Pyramid and healthy habits.

Post Cards – please send in post cards for your child to share as part of our 
Social Studies.  Please feel free to send in pictures, special show and 
tells, foods, etc that represents your child’s heritage.  I think it is a 
great way for the students to learn and appreciate their own cultures and 
other’s.


Please contact me if you have any questions.
Ms. Joanna
