Dear Parents,

I hope you had a nice little break with your family. It certainly sounds like the kids had a great time. The students enjoyed sharing thier stories this morning! The Spiritual Retreat was a blessed time. It was great to get out of Seoul into the mountains, sing praises to our God, discuss the bible, and learn more about Him.

This week we are finally back to a normal schedule! We have our words of the week this week to practice with your child:

eat

please

pretty

what

where

This week's words were tricky to alphabetize because we have 2 words with 3 letters that are the same (what and where)! The words are gradually getting to be more difficult sight words.

This week in math we are learning about some new shapes! These are not just our regular triangles, and squares! We are focusing on 3D shapes. We already covered cylinders, cubes, and rectangular solids, so today we added cones, sphere's and pyramids to the list. If you have the opportunity look for these shapes while you are driving, or in the house. It is great practice to find these shapes in the everyday objects we use! We are also discussing probability, and fractions (1/2's and 1/4's).

On May 9 we shall have a Nursery Rhyme Party. We have learned a new rhyme each week in kindergarten so it is time to celebrate all the rhymes we know! The most exciting thing about this party is that we will all get to dress up like a nursery rhyme character!  

Report cards should be going home very soon. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions or concerns about your child's report card. My number is 010-3043-4271.

This week Paulina's family is in charge of snack. Thank you for your help!

God Bless,

Miss Wunderink
