St. Walter - Kindergarten at 11741 S. Western Ave, Chicago, IL 60643 US - Kindergarten News

Kindergarten is a happenin' place! We are happy to be celebrating a new year.  We are meeting new friends, getting to know our teachers, and practicing our names with play-doh. We will be marching through the alphabet with proper letter formation, identifying the letter's sound and recognizing it in words.

Each week we have a "star" featured letter of the week.  Letter show & tell on Wednesdays is the highlight of the week followed by our magazine search for items that begin with that sound.  Letters we have covered are proudly on display at the front of our room.  

In math we are pattern experts as we continue to search for patterns every where we go. We are pretty good at making our own 2 and 3 piece patterns with everything from buttons to popscicle sticks.

In Religion we are listening to Bible stories and learning that God loves us. We are learning to be more like Jesus each day.

Here are some daily reminders;
**Snack drink - You must send a snack drink each day unless you have ordered snack milk.
   The next order will be in your class newsletter.
**Folders-please return the folder in your child's bookbag each day.
   This is our main form of communication from school to home. 
   Don't forget to thank your "mail carrier" for bringing it home each day !
**Dismissal- please send a note if your child is going in a different dismissal line at the end of the day.
