January

Welcome Back!!  The Kindergarten students are right back into the swing of things.   They have become quite independent over the past few months and it is amazing to see their growth in such a short time.   Now that routines are well established the children are working hard on learning the Letters of the Alphabet and the corresponding sounds so that they can become better readers and writers.   In small groups, they are working at their level to build their literacy and numeracy skills.   Please check out this list of apps and websites so that your child can practice their skills at home.  And of course, reading with and to your child is an excellent way to support your child in their learning.

St. Mary's students

The Kindergarten students at St. Mary's have been exploring numbers and literacy in small group activities. Here are a few photos of their great work.
