What a great first week!

Your child just completed their first week. Starting Tuesday, your child will be in school from 8:35-3:35.

Recap of what we worked on this week:

Reading: We read and listened to several kindergarten stories: Kindergarten Here I Come; The Kissing Hand; David Goes to School

Strategy for this week:

Identify the front and back cover
Recall one part in the story

Sight Word: I

Writing: We drew our first day in Kindergarten. We also drew a picture we remembered from the story. We practiced writing the word I and made a book using the sight word I.

Math: We practiced the lunch count procedure. We made a choice of having first choice, second choice or home lunch. We counted numbers 1-50 aloud. We practiced calendar procedures. We sang the days of the week and the months of the year. We filled in the calendar chart.

Social Studies: We discussed playground safety. We discussed good choices. We discussed following directions (clean up, line up, walking in a line & transitions). (We will continue this next week).

*We went to Gym twice this week. Your child met Mr. Haliburda; the Physical Education teacher.
