At
CCS part of the Kindergarten curriculum is to learn the letters of the alphabet and by doing this they have the Letter People Program. Each week the teachers introduce a new letter/letter person and this helps them learn all about that letter for the week in a fun manner. They learn how properly write the letter both upper and lower case, they learn words that start with the letter, and so on. Also, each week the kids have a homework assignment that correlates with the letter of the week. On this assignment the have to
write their name , date, the letter both upper & lower case, write three words that start with the letter and draw a picture of that word. Then at the end of the year the teachers put them all together, bind them in a book and give them to us. They are so sweet...it's amazing to see how much your
child's writing has changed from August til April. Well they just
finished the letters last week and they had letter people day today. They got to choose a letter to dress up as, have a parade through school, have projects they work on and then get together with their big friends (5
th graders ).
