"The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever." Isaiah 40:8.
This Week We Are Learning (10/26/20):
Reading:
This week we will be focusing on: identifying beginning sounds, words in oral sentences, pausing for punctuation (when reading), identifying cause and effect, questioning, synonyms, and action verbs. We will also discuss the letter Ss and its corresponding phoneme, /s/. We will review the high frequency words: I, like, the, and. (In addition to reviewing the letters/sounds of the alphabet, please continue to practice reading and identifying I, like, and the at home.)
Religion:
In this chapter the children will learn about God as their Creator and about the Blessed Trinity.
October is the Month of the Rosary. Please take some time to talk to your child about the rosary, perhaps show them any rosaries you might have at home and maybe pray a decade or more together
Math:
We will wrap up our exploration of numbers 6-10, the concept of more, fewer (less), and number patterns.
Social Studies:
We will conclude our community helpers unit and begin learning about Veterans and why we set this day aside in honor these brave men and women.
Science:
We will continue investigating pumpkins as well as bats and spiders. -

ABOUT ME
Hello, my name is Elizabeth Reyes and I am the Kindergarten Teacher at St. Martin of Tours. This is my ninth-year teaching here. Previously I taught in another Catholic School. Over the years, I have taught children in Kindergarten, Second, Third, and Fourth grade.
I absolutely love to teach and I feel so blessed to be able to help my students learn and grow. This year, we are going to have a wonderful time making new friends, learning lots of new things, and growing in God’s love.
