Hello Families!

Thank you for coming to parent-teacher conferences! I was able to meet with each one of my amazing students’ families. Please never hesitate to contact me or see me if you have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s progress.

This week we practiced many things. 🙂

In reading, we practiced retelling a narrative story using the sentence stems;

In the beginning, In the middle, and At the end on of the story.

We also practiced telling our favorite part of the story using the sentence stem; “I liked when…”

In math, we practiced adding objects. We used cubes to add as we practiced saying the sum using the sentence stem, “The sum of ___ + ___=____

I encouraged the children to practice adding with objects at home. I told them to get a piece of paper, draw two big squares. They can place some pennies, buttons, cereal… on the squares and practicing finding the sum by adding with the objects.

We also practiced identifying needs and wants. If your child goes to the store with you, please encourage them to identify needs and wants while shopping.

This week we also practiced writing our opinions on different topics. Today, we wrote about our favorite fruit. 🙂 Please encourage your child to tell you their opinions and why they have that opinion. (I like___ because___.)

So….looking ahead to next week….

We will have a SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT kindergarten parent meeting at 9:00AM on TUESDAY. It will take place in our classroom. I look forward to seeing you.

There will be no school on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. 🙂

I will be sending home some homework and homework ideas for this time off of school. Each child will get new books in their reading bags as well. Please keep a look out for these.

Here are some pictures! Enjoy!

Thank you for all you do!!!
