It's our second week of Kindergarten, and we are getting to know each other and learn our routines. Hopefully, the children have been coming home and letting you know about what they have been doing at school.
For our first inquiry, we asked the children the following question: What kind of class do we want to have? We are exploring the topic as a way to establish our class rules/norms. (Stay tuned for another blog post in which we'll describe the process in more detail.)
Thank you to all the families that have returned the green 'Parent Contact' pages and the blue 'School Start Up Forms' packages. We will let you know in the next few days if your family has any outstanding forms that need to be returned.
Scholastic Book Clubs ... we will also send home some order forms in the following days. If you would like to place a book club order, please follow the instructions on the order forms.
Birthdays ... we like to acknowledge and celebrate all of our classmates' birthdays. In our class, when it is a child's birthday, we sing 'Happy Birthday' for him/her, and the child also gets to choose a small gift from the 'birthday box'. Please do not send any food treats to school for your child's birthday. As per Healthy Schools Policy, we will not be able to hand them out to the class.
Mark your calendar ... Nellie McClung is having its Open House/Curriculum Night on September 28th from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. We hope you will be able to join us, and we know the children will enjoy showing you around their classroom!
