December 2015 Kindergarten News

December Kindergarten News

Dear Families,
Our main theme throughout the month of December will be Winter.  We will be doing many Christmas activities  (including creating some special crafts), and will be busy practicing our songs for the Christmas Concert.  We will also learn about other celebrations that happen throughout the world in December.

Thank you very much to the families who came out for our student-led conferences, and to the families who have contacted me to book an alternate time for a conference.  If there is anyone who would still like to book a conference time, please contact me as soon as possible so we can find a time that works for all of us (afrye@sjsd.net).

The Sansome School Christmas Concert (for Kindergarten, Grade 2 and Grade 3) will be on Wednesday, December 16th. 

A.M. student information- The morning kindergarten students will have the opportunity to perform at all 3 performances- the morning dress rehearsal, the afternoon performance (1:30 p.m.) and then again in the evening (7:00 p.m.).   Following the afternoon performance, the MORNING kindergarten students will go to room 35 (at the top of the stairs in the main hallway).  Of course, if you would like to attend the entire concert, you are welcome to do this.  Your child will have had an opportunity to attend the dress rehearsal in the morning on December 16th, so if you choose to stay for the show, please leave your child in Room 35.   If you chose to leave the performance, please pick your child up in Room 35.

The morning kindergarten students will be dismissed as usual for lunch, and then will meet in our classroom (Room 12) at 1:15 p.m. for the afternoon performance.  For the evening performance, all kindergarten students will meet in the classroom between 6:30 and 6:45 p.m.

P.M. student information- The afternoon students will perform at 2 performances- the afternoon concert (1:30 p.m.) and then again in the evening (7:00 p.m.)  Following the afternoon performance, the afternoon students will return to the classroom until the regular dismissal time. 

All students-  Kindergarten students are being asked to dress in “nice” holiday clothing for the afternoon and evening performances.
Description: j0140953At the afternoon and evening concerts, the kindergarten students will present first. There will be a break between the Kindergarten performance and the Grade 2 and 3 performance, when parents are invited to leave and pick up your child.  All kindergarten children will gather in our regular kindergarten classroom following the evening performance.  Please let me know if somebody other than a parent will be picking up your child following any of the performances.

Classroom doors will be open at 6:30 p.m.  Parents waiting to drop their child off in their classroom are asked to gather in the hallway outside the office until the classroom doors are open.  As we will be performing first at the concert, please ensure your child is in the classroom by 6:45 p.m. at the very latest so we can prepare for our performance.

Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns (889-6000 or afrye@sjsd.net).  Also, if you have an idea for a Christmas craft that you would like to do with the children, please let me know.

Have a wonderful month!
