Reminders: Library is tomorrow. Please bring the books to school!
March is Reading Month– Please look at the calendar to see our schedule. There is an event going on daily. We would like students participation, especially on dress up days! The calendar is attached to the blog if you do not have a copy!
Shamrock’s are due on Tuesday. They need to be cut and colored before they are turned in!
Language Arts We are still practicing long vowel words with the silent e. You might hear your child come home and tell you the “bossy e” story (ask them about it:)). We have practiced reading, listening, and writing the long vowels a,i, and o so far. We are also working on narratives in writing. We practiced using a 3-part picture plan to help us write 3-sentence or more stores. We also began practicing adding titles to our pieces of writing. Keep writing at home as one of the Literacy options for homework. Make sure the children are stretching out the sounds they hear. Make sure reading bags and spelling notebooks are coming home nightly!
Math/Science/Social Studies In Math, we are working on the concept of addition by using number bonds. Our goal is to complete lessons 5-9 this week. Module 4 books should be home already so you can make sure you are completing the homework daily. In science, we are talking about weather! This is a very exciting topic and I am proud of how much Kindergarten knows already! We have also been discussing changes in weather from morning temperatures to afternoon temperatures. You can discuss at home why temperature changes throughout the day and what might cause the temperature to warm up in the afternoon. In Social Studies, we are still completing our map unit. We have learned about our classroom, school, and community. This week, we are learning about our state and our country. We are working on terms such as model, key, symbols, and direction.
