Welcome to 4s!!
February
Dear Families, Welcome to February! It will be a short but fun month. We’ll be talking about Valentine’s Day, President’s Day, the American Flag and start learning the Pledge of Allegiance. We’ll look at the letters Q, R, S, T and U. We’ll also talk about numbers 11, 12 and 13. We will also be talking about the importance of Dental care. We continue to work on fine motor skills. Cutting with scissors is a skill needed for Kindergarten! Our Bible words are “You are my friends”, John 15:14. Some things to remember for February: -Book orders are due February 7th. You may order books at https://clubs.scholastic.com Our class code is FZNG9 -Registration for Alumni and currently enrolled for the 2023-2024 School Year will begin February 7th. Registration will begin at 12:00. You should have already received an email about this. -February 13th and 14th are our Valentine’s parties. Please feel free to send treats for treat bags. Treats must be prepackaged, no homemade. Please remember that we strive to be a nut free school. -Your child may bring Valentine’s cards. Signing the cards is great practice writing their name. Have them sign just a few at a time so that they don’t become overwhelmed. Please have your child bring their cards at the beginning of school on the day of their party. Please remember that Valentine’s cards are much easier to pass out if they are not addressed individually. -We are working with the children to correctly form the letters in their names. We are working with them to form their letters top to bottom and from left to right. If you notice your child forming letters bottom to top, please encourage them to change that. -Chapel will be held February 15th and 16th at 9:30 am for morning classes and 1:00 pm for the afternoon. -February 20th is President’s Day. There is no school that day for our MWF classes. -Please send your child with appropriate outerwear. We are hoping for the ice to melt on our playgrounds. We would love to get outside on dry days. And keep working at home on those skills of putting on coats and zipping. We’ve seen a lot more confidence in those skills. -Evaluations have gone home. If you would like to discuss your child’s evaluation, please feel free to contact me. -Thank you for your donation of hats, gloves and mittens. We will be collecting dental supplies for local groups that are in need. I will have a bin outside our drop off door for these. Thank you in advance for your donation. -If we happen to have school closure due to snow, mass emails will be sent out and information will be on KTVB (7) AND KIVI (6) God Bless, Deana DuVall, Lisa Nelson and Laura Hickcox deanaduvall@hotmail.com, School 208-362-5919, Cell 208-870-5367 |
