Superkids
On Monday we met a new Superkid! Here are some questions to ask your child to prompt discussion:
- What is the name of the new Superkid? Doc (short for Doctor)
- What does she like to do? Fix toys and invent new things
- What sound does Doc's name begin with? /d/
- What letter makes the sound /d/? Dd
Handwriting
Superkids has a great handwriting program, and I think this class is doing a great job! However, I have noticed some of the children forgetting the correct way to form the letters we have learned so far (Cc, Oo, Gg, Aa, and now Dd). Please refer to the Superkids handwriting pages that were sent home earlier this year. It is much easier to teach the right way to write a letter than to have to teach a child to "un-learn" the wrong way. And many of the letters are taught by using the same steps from previous letters.
Walk-a-Thon
Tomorrow is the Creekside Walk-a-thon! We will be walking outside from 1:00-1:30 if you plan on joining us. Be sure to check the weather so that your child is dressed appropriately. Please also make sure your child is wearing tennis shoes.
Field Trip
Our field trip to the Indianapolis Zoo is Friday, October 9. Money and permission slips are due this Friday. More information specific to the trip will be coming home next week, including information on lunch and info for chaperones.
Halloween Program
Mark your calendars for the Kindergarten Halloween program! An "official" invitation will be coming home soon, but until then mark your calendars for Thursday, October 29 from 6-7 pm. Kindergartners will come dressed in Halloween costumes and put on a performance for families and friends!
