Welcome to grade 1b!!!!
This is going to be a terrific year! It is so exciting to consider the many things
that will be explored, experienced and learned in the next 10 months. Specific highlights will certainly include
reading, writing, adding, buddies, field trips and so much more!!
I am happy to work with you to share this
year of your child’s life. I feel
blessed that God has called me to teach at Kelowna Christian School and am
committed to partner with you to help your child have a positive, enriching,
successful year. Let us agree to pray
and act with this goal always in mind.
For those of you wanting to get involved in
the classroom, please watch for a class sign-up calendar. Also, I will be looking to fill our long term
calendar for volunteers who are willing to do such things as make playdough or
do laundry. I will be using much of
September to establish classroom routines, rules and expectations, as well as
building positive relationships with each student. This way, each child takes ownership of our
classroom, builds pride in his/her roles, and also builds some healthy
independence. Thus initially, there will
be few chances to help in the classroom during September, however there will be
an increasing number in the following months.
Please take some time today to consider how
much your child has grown and to pray specifically for this school year. It will be a great time!!
I’m always looking for something! Is there anyone interested and able to help
us do a messy art project? Please let me
know if it’s you! Also, we will be doing
projects very soon that require toilet paper rolls and plastic milk jugs for
each student. Please send any in.
I look forward to seeing you at the Back-to-School barbeque Thursday, Sept. 18 at 5:00, followed by our Meet the Teacher night!
Sincerely, in His service,
Niki Hildebrandt
I’m looking for someone who has their FoodSafe certification who would be
able to volunteer on October 10. Please
let me know if you can help us on that day.
