JK PRINTING BOOKLETS

The practice printing booklets, referred to in the December Newsletter, were sent home on Wed. Dec. 19th.
We have also included a laminated sheet that wipes off easily.  (Afternoon RED Group Junior Kindergarten students have not received their laminated printing sheet yet. - SORRY.)

These tools are only for HOME USE.  We do not need these items returned to school.  Please keep the booklets and laminated sheet accessible so they may be used over the holidays to keep those little fingers nimble while furthering the development of their fine motor skills.  After the holidays, please encourage any and all printing at every opportunity. Remember children don't always have to use a pencil or marker to practice shapes of letters. You can make printing practice more fun by using a cookie sheet of chocolate pudding, or a layer of sugar, salt or sand, or simply cutting out or rolling playdough into the shapes.

Thank you for your support.

Once more, we wish you a blessed Christmas holiday and a Happy New Year! Enjoy family time together.

Sincerely,
The Kindergarten Teachers
