Dot Day

We read this story today.

We noticed that 2 of the kids in our class were wearing polka dots!
 
We decorated a big "dot", in honour of DOT DAY. Click here for more info.
             
He was printing some letters that he knows!
  
This is a picture of someone's dad watching t.v. Then a little friend helped write the story  IWTV  = (I watched tv) with a little help from Mrs. Grant   (**This is the early stages of writing!)

This little guy said he drew a picture of Mrs. Grant and her daughter. (I see the resemblance :) ) And he wrote a letter that he has learned in school.

She was happy to show off the flower picture she drew.

Here is a copy of the note sent home today from the Speech Language Pathologist.


Dear Parents,

Welcome to Stevenson School!  My name is Charlene Mitchell and I am the Speech-Language Pathologist working at your school.  Many children who enter Kindergarten have speech and/or language difficulties.  These difficulties range from mild to severe and can involve:

Difficulty Speaking Clearly
o   Speech sound errors or stuttering,

Difficulty Understanding Language
o   Difficulty listening, understanding words/concepts, following directions, understanding and responding to story questions

Difficulty Using Language
o   Difficulties finding words, speaking in sentences, asking questions, using correct word order and grammar, engaging in conversations

A routine speech and language screening will take place during the month of September.  The purpose of the screening is to identify children who may require further assessment and/or intervention in the area of speech and language development.  Should your child require any follow up to this screening you will be contacted as soon as the screening is completed.  If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at (204) 885-1334 ext. 2326 or e-mail me at chmitchell@sjsd.net.
