2nd Quarter Events!

I hope everyone had a great weekend. It was nice to see you on Friday at the Parent-Teacher Interviews. K2 is off to a great 2nd Quarter start so far!

Here is an overview of what we will be learning as the 2nd Quarter begins:

Math: Money (Coins: Pennies, Nickels, Dimes and Quarters) & Measurement
Science: Plants
Language: Rhyming and Numbers
Writing: Numbers and Lower Case letters
Social Studies: Citizenship
Reading: The Storm & Curious George
Sight Words: go, help, here, jump, little

We will continue having Reading Buddies on the last Tuesday of each month with Ms. De La Cruz's Grade 3 class, and have begun a weekly Dance Class to prepare for Chinese New Year. We will begin preparing for the Language Festival that will take place on November 29th and the Christmas Concert on December 20th.

Finally, this Friday, October 25th we will be celebrating Halloween at D.I.S.K. Please send students to school in their PE uniform with their costume in their bag. You may come at 1:30pm to help dress your child in their costume, if you wish. The annual Halloween Fashion Show will begin at 2:00pm. After the Fashion Show, students will trick or treat briefly. I am looking forward to seeing everyone's costumes!

There are many exciting things to look forward to in the upcoming weeks!
