Dear Prek
Parents,
Thank you so
much for celebrating Children’s Day to our kids. They had an amazing time. McDonalds
happy meal, toys, cupcakes, juice, jello, candies, Letter D cookies, donuts,
Doritos. AWESOME!!! Special thanks to the moms who made this day possible and
for each of you for helping them with the money. Thank you for being such
supportive and collaborative parents. We really appreciate your commitment.
Our school is
preparing to celebrate Honduras Independence
Day that will take place on Wednesday,
September 13th.
We will begin
the celebrations with a Desayuno Catracho,
followed by cultural presentations in each grade. Prekinder is in charge of
presenting about the Atlántida. If
you happen to have anything related about these gorgeous place, we will focus
on Garifunas and the Carnival of La Ceiba (corals, map, souvenirs, carnival
masks, etc) please let me know so we can use them for our presentation. Your child does not need to bring in a
snack for break or lunch that day. All kids will be dismissed at 11:45am. There will be no school Thursday, September
14th, and Friday, September 15th. Classes resume on Monday, September 18th.
Kids should wear clothes as if they were at a carnival or like Garifunas. Here are some ideas:
This two days
we will be reviewing letters A-D. We will be focusing on the letter formation
and letter sounds. We will be evaluating
the letter Dd, Parts of the Body vocabulary and numbers 0-5.
In our Social Studies
unit, we will begin talking about HONDURAS. The vocabulary words for this unit is the
following: flag, escudo de Honduras,
orquidia, el pino, map, Venado Cola Blanca, money, Lempira, Guacamaya,
mountains, rivers, lakes.
We wish you a
very happy long weekend. Some of you may enjoy your holiday by going on a trip
or staying at home. We would like to try an activity. If you have a google
account you may have heard or know about google drive. Google drive is where we
upload the powerpoint presentations with the vocabulary words. We have opened
two new folders. These folders are for you to upload a short video of no more
than 5 min. This video will tell us a little bit on how you enjoyed your long
weekend, children will come back next week and they will have like a show and
tell of their short video. The video can be recorded on your phone and you can
upload directly from your phone to the google drive folder. Or you may use any
other video camera and upload it from your computer. We are attaching some
video tutorials if you need any help.
