Dear Kindergarten Families,

February promises to be a busy month in Kindergarten.  (aren’t they all??!!)  Our new theme is “Friends Around the World.”  This theme will carry over since the world is a big place and we would like to incorporate St. Patrick~Ireland /  St. Joseph ~ Italy  and Cinco de Mayo in our plans!  The following are a few things that we have planned:

Religion:  Friends around the World,  I Can Love, Valentine’s Day and Bible Stories

Reading:  Name, shape, sound and sign for letters:  Ll, Gg and blending letter sounds into words.

Word wall words:  are, that, do, and number words one through ten.

Math:  100^th day activities, review measurement, time, money, geometry, and addition skills using manipulatives and touch points.

Art:  Groundhog Day, Friends around the World, President’s Day, Valentine’s Day

Social Studies:  Friends around the World, President’s Day, Groundhog’s Day

Dates to remember:

February 8^th ~ 100^th day of school!  Dress up to look 100 years old!

February 14^th ~ celebrate Valentine’s Day!  Children are invited to pass out Valentines to entire class.  PLEASE do NOT put names on envelopes! Children may bring a WRAPPED treat if you wish.

February 20^th ~ President’s Day ~ No School!

Thank You!   The Kindergarten Queens of Hearts
