Hello Kindergarten Families,
I hope you've all enjoyed your weekend. Here are a few things we have been learning this past week:
New Power Word: “the” (read AND spell it)
Phonics: Reviewing the letter names and sounds of the alphabet.
Phonemic Awareness: Rhyming repetition, onset fluency, blending compound words, and isolating the final sound of words.
Math: Lesson 2 “Describe and Compare Length and Height” We explored different ways to show a number (using objects, pictures, domino dots, 10 frames and counters, counting cubes, writing a numeral, etc.).
Science: This week we have been making observations about how sunshine heats things up. And we’ve noticed that things stay cooler if they are in the shade.
We have a very sweet class and I’ve watched several acts of kindness between them as they start to form new friendships and enjoy being with each other and helping each other. Thanks so much for sharing them with us! Kindergarteners are the best!
UPCOMING: Cookie Dough Fundraiser September 16-25Book Fair September 23-27
*Just a friendly reminder to please LABEL belongings. Please label sweaters, jackets, water bottles, etc. (especially Quest apparel…they all look the same 😉 )
