Curriculum

Boylee's teacher has sent home her first newsletter, and here are some of the highlights:

Mondays -- P.E. (currently karate) and library time

Wednesdays -- Arts Prototype classes -- right now, theater

Thursdays -- Music and P.E. again

The P.E. sessions are run by an outside company and paid for by the PTA's fundraising.

And  here are the topics they're focusing on in the classroom:  rhyming words and activities; reading friends' names; learning about school; number patterns; sorting; and the beginning stages of proper letter formation. 

They've also been focusing on the color red this week, culminating in "Fun Friday" where all the kids were asked to wear red.  This is the outfit Boylee started with:

However he ended up changing his clothes before going to school, so the only red thing left was a red sweatshirt.
