******************************************************************************

Sra. Norma I. Colón Torres

Directora Académica

Felicitamos a los padres que han dicho presente a las reuniones pautadas para presentarles los

datos generales de la escuela, calendarios, cambios y para la presentación de la facultad. Las

reuniones faltantes son:

21 de agosto – Padres de 4to – 6to

28 de agosto – Padres de 7mo- 12mo

21 de agosto – Clase en la mañana – como norma de seguridad por el eclipse solar-

Estudiantes saldrán temprano

Les informamos que el próximo lunes, 21 de agosto ocurrirá un fenómeno natural denominado

eclipse solar entre 2:00 pm a 4:00 pm. En Puerto Rico el eclipse será parcial llegando a un 75-

80% aproximadamente.

Hay un gran riesgo para la salud visual cuando se intenta mirar al sol, aún con gafas protectoras

y/o lentes de soldar. De acuerdo a las orientaciones, el observar directamente este fenómeno

podría ocasionar daños permanentes a la vista. Basado en esto y en la curiosidad que todo niño o

joven puedan tener al horario de salir, se estableció un horario corto de todas las materias en la

mañana.

El horario de salida será el siguiente:

• Pre-Kinder y Kindergarten – saldrán a las 11:00 am

• 1ro a 12mo grado – saldrán a las 11:30 am

No se ofrecerá almuerzo. Todos los estudiantes deben ser recogidos antes de la 1:00 pm. La

escuela cerrará luego de este horario.

A continuación compartimos alguna información que nos ha llegado y que nos puede ayudar a

actuar responsablemente con nuestros estudiantes:

http://m.milenio.com/…/como_ver-que_hacer-que_no_hacer-reco…

Esperamos la cooperación de ustedes por la seguridad de sus hijos.

Evaluando este inicio escolar podemos señalamos que el mismo ha sido uno muy estructurado y

que basándonos en los comentarios de padres y estudiantes hay mucha satisfacción por la forma

que se ha organizado y por la calidad profesional de nuestro equipo de trabajo.

Gracias por todo su apoyo y los exhortamos a que sigan teniendo esa buena comunicación con

Washburn.

Saludos padres, madres y estudiantes:

Esta semana continuaremos trabajando fuertemente en nuestra política de Cero Tolerancia al

“Bullying”. Se estará impactando a estudiantes de nivel elemental con orientaciones sobre el

acoso escolar y sus consecuencias. También se enviará material informativo al hogar para que lo

discuta con su hijo.

Les informo, además, que comenzamos con nuestra venta de camisetas a beneficio de la Go

Gogo Pediatric Cancer Foundation. Washburn participará de la 8va caminata “Go for the

Kids” que se llevará a cabo el domingo, 24 de septiembre partiendo de la Pontificia

Universidad Católica de Puerto Rico en Ponce hacia el Complejo Ferial. Apoye la causa,

adquiera su camiseta por $12 y camine con nosotros.

“Educad a los niños. Educadlos en la tolerancia, en la solidaridad. Transmitirle lo más

importante que tenemos: la herencia cultural.”

Students will practice the alphabet one by one

Students will be directed to where that book belongs on the shelf, and why it has a capital

Practice each part of a book using a book from the shelf.

******************************************************************************

Teacher: Mrs. Sandra Detres

Homeroom: Pre-Kinder

Greeting to all my P-K Parents,

Pre-K students are hungry for knowledge. That's why this is the best age to teach a foreign

language and have exciting activities for them, because they are so full of energy.

This coming week this is our goal:

ENGLISH: School Unit

Teacher, school, students, children, playground, jungle gym, books, snacks, backpacks,

pencils, paper, crayons, scissors, notebook, tape, glue, eraser, flag, etc...

MATH: Positions, contrast, opposites, and comparison

inside- outside

up-down

more-less

largest-smallest

same-different

empty-full

CALLIGRAPHY: Tracing lines and shapes, getting ready for our writing skills

We will still be practicing structure and to follow rules:

Listen to the Teacher

Raise your hand to speak Eyes....on the teacher

Ask permission Ears....open to listen

Form a quiet line Mouth..closed and quiet

Share Hands.. to yourself

Be Kind Feet....walking, no running

Say Thank-You and Please

Until next weekly news. Have a blessed day!

Comments:

Bonjour Parents:

For the test and any assignment given in class a French

Dictionary is HIGHLY recommended. They will be able to use

it.

The students are motivated with learning a third language. It is

my upmost recommendation that you listen to them as they

practice.

Also, it is highly recommended that they have a dictionary of

French-English so they can look up for words on their own time

and seek self-improvement.

In class assessments I have acknowledged that the students have

been studying and practicing at home. They have completed the

work and have helped each other to complete as well. Keep up

the good work!

Up until now every student is in good standard, but any doubts

feel free to schedule an appointment.

"The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is

possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an

office." – Gen. D.D. Eisenhower
