Kindergarten
My name is Mrs. Irza. This is my 16th year of teaching and my fifth year teaching Kindergarten, all at St. John School. I have enjoyed beginning the students' educational journeys with them each year. I am truly amazed with their daily growth.
Kindergarten has been busy this year beginning our educational journey with learning letters and sounds. We spend our mornings practicing how to write our letters and spell and read words. We use salt trays, clay to form letters some of the time or push up M & M's to segment the sounds in our words. We also make our own books and class books to help build fluency. In math we learn beginning concepts in partterns, classification, numbers, time, money and addition and subtraction. Our afternoons are spent learning religion concepts such as family, the life of Jesus, baptism and our special talents. We also have themes such as farm life, dinosaurs, Fall harvest, winter, home and neighborhood and holidays.
What's new in 2010?
Our kindergarten students and their families enjoy a day of making Gingerbread Houses!!
