Kindergarten Update

Dear Parents, March 20,2020

Firstly we would like to thank you for all of your support and flexibility as we navigate these very unusual times. Our first week of “Zoom” went well and we will continue to do our daily Zoom at 9:15AM.It is so heartwarming to see your children’s faces and to have them see each other online.As stated in today’s Zoom class, don’t forget to look out for Monday morning’s email with regard to lessons and any other important information.

We will begin to share our SuperKid, Rose and Guesstimation jar at our morning Zoom class.

Abby and Mariela will be our Superkids this week (since Abby did not have her turn last week) and will share their posters and things.

Hannah has the Guesstimation Jar. We will send you a picture of the things Hannah has put in her jar. Please have your child write their guess on a piece of paper ( large enough for everyone to see it ) and be ready to share it on Zoom. It should be on Thursday or Friday.

Mazzee has Rose and will share her experiences online at Zoom class as well.

What’s Going On in Zoom Class?

Language Arts/SuperKids- Continue working in the SuperKids booklets- Unit 17 as directed. Also continue with online SuperKids and Raz Kids.

Math.- Continue with Tallying, Numbers and Pairs.

Social Studies/Art- We will study about Benjamin Franklin this week and then we will move into a unit studying some of the great major artists of the world. This unit will be introduced by a reading of the book E-I-E-I Art written by Mari Tzikas Suarez. Intructions for this unit will follow.

Looking Ahead

Things are changing from day to day. We will keep you informed of changes as much as we can.

Again,we thank you for your support and know that our primary focus is your children’s education.

What Our Families are Saying

"The supportive teachers at SPN played a big role in preparing me for high school and helping me understand what to expect. They encouraged me to ask questions and seek help when needed, which made me more confident in my learning. Thanks to them, I entered freshman year already familiar with many concepts and effective study habits that have helped me stay on top of my work. SPN also taught me valuable life skills that I still use today, helping me succeed academically, build strong friendships, and maintain my overall well-being."

— Tibby Horvath, SPN Class of 2022

"We are very satisfied with the SPN community, something that is important to our family. My children feel safe and comfortable with SPN. Our family feels connected with the SPN community from parents and families to the staff and faculty. My children and we as parents have made healthy and positive relationships with other families from school. We share time outside of school with other families which brings a level of connectedness I don't know if we would have elsewhere"

— SPN Parent

"My children are experiencing community in other ways than just friends and playdates. Faith Families is an example of community, interacting with students from all grade levels, and learning and creating for others outside of SPN. Field trips to Kids Against Hunger or the Alameda Food Bank where they work and see firsthand how their efforts help others less fortunate, for those who are in need of support. Community is not just our SPN ‘bubble,’ and that is what SPN demonstrates and provides– opportunity to explore a bigger community."
