It'll be a busy month - full of anticipation and fun - but we need our Jaguars to remain focused on their learning. As a school, we are making progress and growth!
Our Pre-K, Kindergarten, and 1st graders are working hard to learn early literacy skills - which means LANGUAGE. We work hard to provide a language-rich, engaging environment so that their foundational skills are strong. You can help by encouraging your child to speak in complete sentences - saying "Will you tie my shoe, please?", for example, instead of just holding their foot out for you to guess what they want. It is wonderful to hear our very youngest students using sentences to communicate; make it a challenge at home!
With all of that in mind, please help us by continuing to send them to school each morning around 7:00 ready to eat a good breakfast in the classroom and learn. Consistent attendance at school is so critical to students' academic development. We will have some fun dress-up days (see pic below) to make it more fun to get up and get dressed - make sure to join in the fun!
Thank you for helping our teachers to get their fall conferences held. We are nearly finished! If you have not met with your child's teacher, please reach out to her by email at: firstname.lastname@killeenisd.org to schedule a date and time before the Christmas holiday.
We look forward to a fun-filled month of December!
