October 18th - 22nd

 

The boys and girls have been working very hard with the Montessori Movable Alphabet.  This week we worked on writing sentences phonetically and then writing it in their journals.  I'm so proud of their work!


 "She fed her lizard."

"I love the owl."

 "She loves her pets."

 "I like lollipops."

 "He fixes the new light bulb."

 "I saw the lion."

"Lollipops have vitamins."

Montessori Math materials!  The students created two digit numbers and some started to add with them!

Pre-K/K Mission Party Drive Video

The Pre-K and Kindergarten students colored pictures to share with the HCA classrooms in order to get the word out about supporting our drive for the troops!






EVENTS AND REMINDERS

Gym Days next week:  Tueday, Thursday, Friday

Pre-K and Kindergarten students are organizing a drive to support our troops stationed abroad. We are looking to collect the following items: individually wrapped snacks: beef jerky, protein bars, trail mix, candy bars; Chef Boyardee or cup of soups, and travel size toiletries (toothpaste, shampoo, sun lotion, etc.). Donations can be sent in now through the Mission Party on the 29th.

November is All Religions month, when we celebrate the central themes of love and goodness that all religions share. We plan to have a panel of people from different faiths briefly share what is special about their religion to them and a favorite celebration or practice that they enjoy about their religion. If you or someone you know would like to be part of this in any way, please contact Julie Myers at jmyers@holychildacademy.com .

Have a great weekend!
