Thanksgiving!

Hi Parents,

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families and safe travels!  My time was wonderful getting to catch up with family and friends.  I am so thankful that I get to teach your little Kinder!  I couldn't have a better job!  To add to that, having wonderful supportive parents is such a blessing!  It was SO great getting to meet with each of you during conference week and plan for your child!  These next few weeks will be very busy and super exciting!  I have so much planned, that I am excited just thinking about all that we get to do!


Some big things happening in December:

1) Holiday Party on December 19th:  I am looking for one parent helper from each class to head up the Christmas Party Rotations and Snacks.  I will also need volunteers during the rotations on that day.  I am planning the schedule for that day to look like this:

  • 4 Rotations @ 10 minutes each = 40 minutes
  • Pajama Party!  Kiddos come in their pj's to school!  They bring one stuffed animal or a pillow pet (that can fit in their backpack) to snuggle with while we watch the Snowman Movie by Raymond Briggs.  
  • Specialists (PE, Music, and Library) 
2) Concerts at Retirement Communities!  Remember there isn't room at the facilities for parents to come watch, but we will have a concert for parents and grandparents to come watch!  Look below!  :)  
        December 4th our AM class going to Fairwinds!  
        December 10th our PM class is going to Fairwood!

3) Concert in Classroom for Parents and Grandparents on December 18th!  
     AM concert will be at 9:30 and PM concert will be at 2:30!

4) All Day Scavenger Hunt Field Trip on December 17th!  This is a walking Field Trip so you will be indoor and outdoor!  Please make sure your child (and you) dresses in super warm gear so they can enjoy the whole field trip.  I would rather them be too warm, than too cold!  Also make sure they wear shoes appropriate for walking around all day.

5) In addition to reading groups, I will be doing some grouping for math at different times throughout the week.  This way each child gets individualized attention when it comes to math too!  

Have a great evening!
~Love, 
Mrs. Wittwer
