Our Week in Kindergarten
Our Week:
We have been busy preparing for our special friends and grandparents visiting on Friday. We have painted pictures about our grandparents, read about Pilgrims, written about Thanksgiving traditions, practiced Xx and Yy letter formation, worked on rhyming pairs, and worked on our writing prompts for Planned Play. We continue to focus on lower case letter formation, beginning sentence with capital letter, spaces between words, attempts at phonetic spelling, accurate use of sight words, and ending punctuation.
Please be sure to send a water bottle daily with a name label. Children need water bottles during lunch. Children are required to stay seated for 25 minutes and eat and socialize. Walking back and forth between the lunch tables and water fountains is not a choice for the students. Association of American Pediatrics recommends limiting 100% juice to 4-6 oz. daily for children age 1 to 6. Please consider limiting juice intake and substituting fresh whole fruit and vegetable into your child’s diet.
We watched Grade 2 put on a production of a Mayflower play. The students were excited to watch the big children perform and play the roles of Pilgrims.
We hope you all have fun and relaxing vacation. The students this week discussed what they were grateful for: moms, dads, family, friends, pets, teachers, rain, US Navy, cousins, trees, books, singing, earth, food, Army, rainbows, school, and flowers.
Poem
I’m a little turkey
My name is Ted.
Here are my feathers
And here is my head.
Gobble, gobble, gobble
Is what I say.
Quick! Run!
It’s Thanksgiving Day.
(Tune of I’m a Little Teapot)
