I can learn about the Yellow Zone

-

Today we learned all about the Yellow Zone of regulation.  We learned that being in the yellow zone can mean I am feeling excited, frustrated, hyper or silly.  When I am in this zone, I have difficulty focusing.  


Here is a video with some strategies for when I am in the yellow zone:

Here is a great story we read today about when we are feeling in the yellow zone:



***Please remember that there is NO SCHOOL TOMORROW.  Have a great long weekend!

Reminders:

- We are looking for scraps of red themed textile (fabric) for an art project. If you have fabrics with red patterns and no longer need it and would like to donate it to our class, we will put it to good use. Thank you! Here are some examples of what we are looking for:

-Continue building independence with zipping backpacks/jackets, putting on boots/jackets and snow pants 

 -Library days are every Thursday, please return books by Thursday. 

-PHOTO RETAKES are on Oct 24. All students who were away for our last photo day when get their picture taken. If you would like your child to get photo retakes, please email your child's teacher. 

*** If you are interested in volunteering in our classroom, we would love for you to come in whenever is most convenient for you!  If you have your police clearance and are interested, please email your child's teacher!  If you have not yet gotten your police security clearance, you will need to stop in at the office to get that process started.

  Hello families and welcome to our kindergarten blog! We will be updating this blog daily with what we have been working on and important information and updates about our class. Please check it regularly as this is our main form of communication with you. This will also help connect you with what is happening at school so you can guide those conversations with your child at home and ask them "tell me more about......". We had a wonderful first staggered entry day yesterday. Your children were absolutely wonderful and they did so great! Thank you for your help in prepping them for this milestone. Ask your child to share with you some of the things they learned about the kindergarten teachers. We worked on practicing printing our name and drawing a picture of us on the first day of school.  We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday September 5 during our regular kindergarten hours. AM Class 8:15-11:15am PM Class 12:05-3:05pm Have a wonderful long weekend and see you on Tuesday
