Last year was an amazing year
for my son. He went from
dreading work to wanting to
become a learner. The teachers
and staff worked individually
with him as he transitioned. He
is ready for first grade because
of his kindergarten experience.

We are so pleased with the
Kindergarten Program at CBC!
The curriculum is creative and
inventive, and the kids have fun
while they learn in a safe, Christian
environment. It offers so much
more than merely teaching rote
skills and completing worksheets;
but rather the children are
immersed in activities that teach
them to think critically in reading,
language arts, math, and science.
The kids learn to work
independently but also get lots of
one-on-one attention. Our
daughter was reading by Christmas
which really boosted her
confidence! We highly recommend
this program!

Our unit this month is all about vehicles! Lots of fun is planned starting with a class mural of types of vehicles sorted by where they travel
- land, air, or water. On Friday we will sort, tally, and count the various vehicles that come through the preschool carpool line. We will
also focus on the Bible Story of Noah and the Ark. Next week begins a HUGE project to go with this story...I still could use some large
Weekly News and Lessons for all the details.

I am so proud of the progress the children are making in their reading. Please keep reading with them using the Shared Reading Notebook
and the books in your Treasure Book Box. This month I want to add to the resources by allowing your child to borrow books from our
library of leveled readers. On Tuesday I will help your child choose a book that interests them and that is at their instructional reading
level. This book will come home in a ziplock bag labeled LIBRARY BOOKS. Your child will need your assistance for the first reading -
this book will be at their instructional level- it should be a little challenging. Encourage your child to use the picture clues, patterns in
the sentence structure, and their phonics skills to "sound out" a word. Keep the book for several days. When your child is proficient at the
reading, send it back in the ziplock library bag and I will help your child select another. I will not search backpacks for library books - it is
your child's responsibility to return the book and bag to my library basket. Please remind them of this - don't just stick the book in their
backpack. If the book is too frustrating for your child please send it back immediately and I will review the level with them. The book
should not be too easy or too difficult.
Last Names...
This month our sign in sheets and the "Attendance Sheep" will now have your child's last name. I would like the children to be able to
recognize and read this. The sheep will ONLY have last names. Please review this with your child if they struggle. And FYI - please start
reviewing your address too - next month the children will be hanging their sheep by their address (which will move everyday) These are
important kindergarten skills. Thank you for your help in this.
