Our Week in Kindergarten
Our Week:
We have had a busy week. We have worked on holiday cards, played Dreidel and read stories about Hanukkah. We have worked on letter formation, digraphs, and dividing words into syllables this week. Students have been focusing on reading and writing sight words and adding detail to illustrations. Please review lower case letter formation with your children this week in the Wilson letter packet. Please be sure to practice sight words during the break and do 20-30 minutes of Lexia Core5 a week, as well as reading daily.
In math we continued to work on skip counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s and number bonds between 1 and 10. We have practiced double addition facts (1+1, 2+2, 3+3) and working on number formations and reversals.
Thank you for all of your contributions to our class party and all your generosity to the Angel Giving Tree. The children were very proud of the gifts as we carried them all up to the Salvation Army truck.
Your children are bringing home Blue Crocus bulbs in milk cartons. We have been tending to and watching them grow for several weeks. These may be transplanted to a pot indoors or outdoors, but will grow faster indoors. Water when the soil appears dry. Have fun watching these flower and bloom. Your children are also transporting a fragile holiday gift to give to you. It is wrapped and in their backpacks. Please be on the look out for these packages.
We hope you all have a restful and relaxing holiday. We will see you in the New Year.
Poem of the Week:
Five little snowmen were happy and gay.
First one said, “What a beautiful day.”
Second one said, “We’ll never have tears.”
Third one said, “We’ll stay here for years.”
Fourth one said, “But what will happen in May?”
Fifth one said, “Look we’re melting away!”
Reminders:
· Free Dress, Friday, December 19
· Holiday party @ 2:15 Friday December 19
· Vacation December 20-January 4
· School resumes Monday, January 5
Happy Holidays,
Vicki Copeland and Manon Pratt
