Dear Parents and Students,

CCUSD schools remain closed. There are supplemental education resources for all students, however, teachers are not in the schools and will not be available through March 27th. We are working with the Arizona Department of Education to understand more about school closures and our next steps. In the meantime, you may want to visit the two web pages linked below, one for COVID 19 updates, and one for at-home supplemental education resources. We will continue to provide updates as often as possible. We appreciate your patience during this unprecedented time.

In our class we will be working on reading, writing and social studies.  We will begin the year working on the alphabet with our Zoo Phonics program and slide into blending and segmenting words.  We will practice reading decodable and sight word readers.  We will learn writing using quick writes, labeling, making lists, and forming complete sentences.

Our math and science instruction is given in Mandarin Chinese.  The children spend 3 hours a day with Yan Laoshi. She is instructing the children in how to greet one another, basic vocabulary and the the Common Core Math Standards for Kindergarten as well as the Arizona State Science Standards.  (5 senses, animals, plants, life cycle, insects, desert habitat and Planets)

In Social Studies we will learn how to be a community in our classroom, talk with community helpers, and learn about holidays.

We will have an exciting school year, I can't wait to meet you!
