Dear Parents,
Below you will find information concerning our Moving up Day this Friday.
Blessed Trinity Preschool 4 Moving Up Information Please keep for reference.
We do not have any more homework or a regular newsletter.Dear Parents,
Our Moving Up Ceremony will be held on June 11, 2021. This will be our last day of school. The children will have a ceremony at 9:00 AM in the lower church. Parents will drop off their child at the regular school entrance at 8:30 AM, and go directly to the church. It is very important that your child is on time. We cannot hold up the ceremony for one person. The children will go home with their parents after the festivities. The children should wear dressy casual clothes with nice sneakers, or sneaker-like shoes. Please no flip-flops, dressy shoes, or sandals. Do not give children flowers or gifts before the ceremony. Please follow the requests to be fair to all the children.
During the ceremony please be mindful that we are in church. Do not bring in any food or beverages, and be sure to silence all cell phones. You may respectfully take pictures, but do not block the children or the view of others.
After the ceremony you may take pictures outside of the church in the area of the Blessed Mother statue for a few minutes, but please do not block the doors to the church since the Kindergarten children are having their ceremony immediately following ours and need to enter the church.. Please do not park in the school parking lot.
Thanking you in advance for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Mrs. O’Brien

Reminders:
- It is a very exciting time for the children right now. Letters, sounds and printing are all coming together. I am proud of the kids for their hard work.
This is a great time to really encourage their attempts at writing words and sentences. They are learning that there are many ways to spell words that they want to write. The first one is to sound it out and do their best. If they do not know the sound just put a line where it would belong. Find the words on packages, labeling, word lists etc. If the children want to know how to spell a word, do not just spell it, tell them to try on their own. You want to empower them to be writers. It would be great if you could maybe make a poster with the names of family members. Label a few things with post its around the house. Keep a word copybook of all the new words they find. Jack Hartman has fabulous videos for them to look at. The site word videos are really fun. They love them.
A simple child’s picture dictionary would be great addition the children’s library at this point.
- Thank you for all those who are doing the homework each evening. The printing is really improving.
- Please do not double park or park in the bus zone at arrival or dismissal.
- Please remind the children to hold their pencils correctly. If they develop a bad grip now it will be there forever. They will probably fight you already. It is important and it could cause problems later.
A few things we will be learning:
- Feelings, God’s gift of learning and discovering
- How plants grow
- Review shapes and adding one or two to a number
- Spacing of words
- Printing our entire name correctly
Homework
Printing: The children will have a sample of their name printed each day in the copybook. Directly under the name have your child print the name as it is modeled in the copybook. Please remember the correct grip, using complete circles for the letters such as: a, d, g, o, p, q, b. For the r, n, m, h remind the children to go down, up and jump off. The uppercase J does not have a top on it. I realize the print on the computer does have one, but the guide sent home does not.
Monday: Print your entire name one time.
Finish the sentence starter in the copybook with an animal name.
I see a ___________.
Tuesday: Print your complete name one time.
Finish the sentence starter in the copybook. Ex: Can I play?
Can I ________? Call attention to the question mark.

Reminders:
- We have a 1:00PM dismissal on Tuesday, May 4, 2021 due to Confirmation.
- Please do not double park or park in the bus zone at arrival or dismissal.
- Dress Code: All the students should abide by the school dress code. I did not make up the rules, but I am expected to enforce them. To be fair it has to be equal to everyone in the same way. It is not fair to those who do follow the code to disregard those who do not. I have to look at everyone, not just your child. For example: If one child goes to the nail salon with grandmom and gets her nails done. I understand that it might be a nice little experience and since it costs money you do not want to take it off. However, another child might want to do the same thing, and is told that you are not allowed to wear nail polish to school. This child goes back to school and sees another child with nail polish. This is really confusing and basically unfair. That is why I enforce the rules for everyone. I hope you understand. I am doing what I am supposed to do.

FLIPGRID - I have asked for the Flipgrid assignment to be completed by all the children. I have given you plenty of time to complete this assignment and I am troubled by the fact that 5 children have not done the work. The assignments are not optional. I am very understanding if you would have sent me a note or a Remind, but a few people have not done many of the assignments in the past two months. It is confusing to the children when I mention the Fligrid and they have no idea what we are talking about. Thank you to all who have completed each video. I am amazed how much the children have grown.

Dear Parents,
First of all I would like to wish all of you a very Happy New Year. I hope and pray that things will only get better from here on out in 2021. Although I have enjoyed this time off from school, I feel it is time to get back to work.
During the past few weeks we have had holidays, snow, excitement, and frustration. We need to put all of this behind us and get back to normal (whatever normal is these days). Therefore, I am asking for your cooperation to ensure that the children get the most out of their time in school this year.
Please be sure to read everything sent to you. I will try to list materials needed for the week that should be kept nearby your child each day. It is important to do homework each evening with your child. If there is a problem please send me a Remind text message. If I ask you to pick up anything at school please do it as soon as you possibly can.
Do not be surprised if your child has a hard time getting back into the groove. It is really common for this to happen at this time of the year. They have had a long time off and it can be difficult for them to adjust. Keeping to a consistent schedule for bed is really helpful.
Sincerely,
Mrs. O’Brien

Virtual Learning Reminders: Please show your child how to use the mute button. It is so important that you remember to try and keep the area near the computer as quiet as possible. Also, remember that any conversation that is said when the child is not muted can be overheard by everyone who is on. Something as silly as doing dishes can truly be a big distraction. The children should not be eating, drinking, or playing with any toys unless we are on a break. Please make sure your child stays in front of the computer and keeps the screen on at all times.
Parent Involvement
I understand that you want to help your child. However, please do not give your child any help with answers when we are virtual. If I believe they need your help I will ask you to help. But if you think about it...the children do not have any extra help in the classroom during regular times.
Masks: please work on making sure the children’s masks are snug. I want to keep all the children as safe as possible.
Homework: Use this homework for Monday and Tuesday, I have changed it from the newsletter that was posted online last week.
Monday- Retelling story cards for Thanksgiving sent home. Talk about them and place them in the copybook in the correct order.
Tuesday- Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I would also like to thank you for your patience and support during this very unusual school year.

Sharing Devices- if you do not have enough devices for your preschool child, please do not just forget about the younger child. The older students do have times when they are on virtual breaks.

At first, make the groups obvious and then make the differences closer. First, make an estimate and then count to be sure. Be sure to use the words greater and less than. Please comment in the copybook.
Tuesday- Complete the Thankfulness quilt square sent home. Return it on the next day of in-person school.
Wednesday-We were talking about Knock Knock Jokes today in school. Ask your child the following and write down how they respond.
What kind of music to the Pilgrims like? What kind of key do you use on Thanksgiving?

Reminders: We will all get it together in a week or two. Homework will also be posted on my webpage on the school site.
Please check out our website: www.btrcs.org and our Blessed Trinity Facebook and Youtube site.
Masks: Please be sure that the masks the children are wearing are snug to the face.
Parking- Thank you to all those who have not parked in the bus zone. If you have parked in the zone, I would truly appreciate it if you do not continue to do so. Parking in the schoolyard is not permitted.
Folders- Please check folders each evening and return the folder to the school bag. One of the two folders sent into school will be used in school and will be returned in June.
Post It Notes: as you can imagine, it can get quite busy in class with all the children. There will be times that you might get a quick reminder or request on a post-it note stuck to the copybook or folder. Please do not be upset if it is right to the point.
Homework- Homework listed for Monday should be completed that evening and sent in on Tuesday morning. It is important that homework is completed each evening. If something comes up and it can not be completed please send me a note, and complete it the next evening. The children feel left out when we are going over the homework if they do not have something to share. This also sets a good precedent for the years to come.
Ziplock- Shortly will staple a ziplock bag inside your child’s folder. Please keep it secure and use it to place any small items that are requested that might get lost in the folder.
Snacks - Please do not forget the following rules: one snack, one napkin, spoons if needed, small water bottle or juice box (no pouches or refillable drink containers) all in a brown bag with name printed on it. No plastic containers that need to be returned home.
Forms: if you did not return the forms sent home to you please do so by Thursday.
A few things we will learn:
-the idea of a library and care of books
- expressing feelings
`following rules
Homework: Please do each evening! Please do not skip around in the copybook and date each assignment. The children should only use the copybook for homework.
Monday: Tape the Sign of the Cross paper in the copybook and practice making this sign with your child.
Tuesday: When children come home we often ask, “What did you do in school today?” Experts tell us to be more specific with preschoolers. Ex: What toys did you play with? Did you meet a new friend? Ask your child a question about their day in school. Print the question in the copybook and your child’s response.
Wednesday: Review paper sent home in the copybook. Have a BOOK SEARCH around the house. Talk about the various types of books found. In the copybook please have the parent print the names of the various people in your family, and write down what kind of books they each like. Ex: story books, cook books, magazines, novels etc.
