Weekly Update
Jan 20-Jan 23, 2025 “Teddy Bears”
4K had a fun week blasting off to outer space! We watched a rocket blast off into space, heard about sounds the stars make, learned about the different planets, and we even got to try astronaut food! We focused on the letter Ss and learned the sound it makes and practiced writing it. Our Bible lessons were about the 12 spies and Korah and his men.
Next week will be our Teddy Bear unit. We will read and make a fun book called Where’s Teddy? We will watch a short video that shows how Teddy Bears are made and we will make patterns using bears. Please send your child with his or her own teddy bear (if they have one) on Monday or Tuesday. We will get to share these with the class. Our letter for next week is the letter Tt. We will say its sound and practice writing it. Our Bible lessons for next week will be about the bronze snake and Balaam.
Looking ahead to February, we will be having our class Valentine’s Day parties on February 14th. Please send your child with one empty cereal box that they can decorate at school and can be used as their mailbox. Please have an empty cereal box sent in by February 7th.
Our Day with Dudes is also coming up on February 7th. A form was sent home with your child this week that explains more about this fun day. Please have your RSVP sent back to me by January 31st.
For the month of January, our school chapel offerings are supporting Family Sharing. In addition to the offering money collected each Wednesday, we are also looking for a few key items to support Family Sharing this season. They are looking for canned chicken, canned pineapple, canned peaches, oatmeal variety packs, and granola bar packs. Donations will be collected in the classroom throughout January.
