Focus Question 1: What names do we need to know at school?
Dear Parents
We have already reached the end of our first week together in PK and what a busy time it has been!
We began the week asking the question "What names do we need to know at school?" We sang songs to help us learn each other’s names, found our names on our cubbies and on our morning attendance chart. We learnt the names of the different choice centers in the classroom and we learnt the names of our teachers!
In circle time, we talked about how our names are different and have different sounds.
Today we took a walk around school, using pictures to learn the names of the different areas that are important to us. We visited the library, playground and our snack area. We found water fountains, lots of classrooms and grassy areas.
Your children have done so well this week, you should be very proud of them. I know we are!
If you have any questions, however big or small please do not hesitate to get in touch. dcruz@isp.edu.pa
Have a great weekend everyone.
