Hello parents and guardians!
I hope that you have had some time to look through your child’s book bag that I sent home after school today. If you have any questions regarding anything in the book bag, please do not hesitate to contact me, either in person or by email. My email address is jhusain@stjudesacademy.com. Although it is the first week of school and many of our junior kindergarten students are new to this environment, we had a wonderful day overall. Many students are already getting the hang of learning our daily morning song, the “Good Morning Boogie.”
Today, we discussed the weather outside, cloudy and windy, along with singing the days of the week song and discussing the month of September. We did many activities today, but the most-loved period of the day was reading. Each student was given a book to take to their desk to read. They loved looking at the pictures and running their index finger over each word. This is a big, successful step for our kindergartens and I am very proud that they were all able to do this with minimal assistance. We also had classes with three different teachers: gym with Mr. Browning, French with Mme. Stella, and drama with Mrs. Deras. I’m sure some of you have already heard the “Bonjour Mes Amis” song!
We did some fine-motor skill activities, which included learning and becoming familiar with scissors. This was done at the end of the day and went fairly well. Overall, we had a wonderful day and I am getting to know each child more and more. I hope you all have a great, relaxing night before another active day at school tomorrow!
Best wishes,
Ms. Husain
