JK Newsletter January 23, 2026


We are having an Arctic blast this week in the classroom! So far we have learned about Arctic and the Penguins.  So much more to come next week, when our own Arctic blast is over:)

Catholic schools week starts on Sunday! We have Mass at 10:30 and then Open House from 11:30-2:30! Please tell your friends and neighbors! Start with us in JK and then head to meet Mrs. Mahr in  Kindergarten (room 108), to see what fun things your kids will be doing next year!!
Our school is amazing because of all the wonderful families, teachers and faith! It is what grounds us all, and makes your kids thrive!

Questions for your children:

  • What do Penguins eat?
  • Can they taste their food?
  • What arctic animal are you looking forward to learning about?


 Religion: We are celebrating our school through church and song!

Literacy: Working on beginning, middle and ending sounds in Phonemic awareness. We are also working on proper letter formation

Math: Ten frames, graphs, patterns and number poems. Lots of math fun!

Social Studies/Science: We will continue our unit on Arctic animals next week!

Next Monday,  will be starting our Meteorologist Daily Reporter.  Each day a different child will report the weather to the class using a special form. If the form is in your child’s backpack, its your child’s turn. Please fill out the form with your child and PRACTICE PRACTICE, PRACTICE with your child so they feel comfortable presenting the weather to the class. Please bring back the envelope (marker and eraser too) the next school day!

Have a wonderful weekend!
