Hi there ! I hope the luck of the Irish was with you on St. Patricks Day and everyone had a fun weeekend celebrating! This is a 3 day week for our Kinders. There is no school for Kindergarten students on Tuesday March 21st as next years students will be coming to school for "On My Way to K". On Friday the 24th, Teachers have a PD day so there is no school for all students.
Here is what's happening in this short but busy week :
Literacy- Please read your Borrow-A-Books each night. We have 3 books this week.Be sure to read at least 2 of your 3 books each night. As you read, point to each word and stop at the period.Use the pictures for cues to help identify the words. Read the sight words you know and try to stretch out unknown words by saying all the letter sounds you hear. Please remember to fill in the reading log each night and have your child print their name.This week, please, return all books in the borrow-a-book bag on Thursday.Thanks!
Rock Star Words- Review your word list this week. When your child knows all words quickly, please sign (parent signature) the sheet and return it to class and I will test your child to see if they are ready for the next list. We are reviewing words daily in class and once your child consistently recognizes a few words in print, I will send a list home with them.
Library- We visit the library on Thursday.Last week the library was closed because of the STEM Fair. Many students have already returned their book, so be sure to check at home and bring your book to school so you can sign out a new one.Keep your book for the week and return it the following week in the library bag.If you forget the book, please send it in the next day and I will send home the new book.Happy Reading!
Phys. Ed. Classes - We have gym classes on Tuesday and Thursday this week.Please dress in comfortable clothes, ready to run, play and have fun.If the weather is nice, please be prepared to go outside for class with Mrs. Dickson.
St. Patrick's Day-The children had a lot of fun on St. Paddy's day. They didn't catch a leprechaun but, made some great traps. They had a lot of fun searching for the pot of gold.
Water bottles- Please pack your water bottle and bring it to school day.
Looking forward to another fun week in Kindergarten! Smile and be kind to each other! :) Mrs. Sullivan-Goguen
