Thank you Kindergarteners for your generous donations last week!  We had 94 items donated.    Good Job!

This week…

Beginning Tuesday, our PTA will sponsor a Holiday Boutique this week.  All items are $2.00.  If you would like your child to purchase gifts for your family, please send in the appropriate amount of money in the envelop that was sent home last Friday.  You may want to list the names of those for whom your child is purchasing.  The students enjoy “shopping” all by themselves!

Tuesday-Since tomorrow is LATE START I will be taking lunch count today for tomorrow.  If your child is buying lunch tomorrow you may want to discuss lunch choices for our lunch count.

Wednesday-LATE START

READING-Our Unit is “What’s For Dinner?”

Word  “have”           Letter   “C  c”

The students are moving along nicely in Reading Groups.  We do so many “things” in groups.  I assess their Comprehension, their Accuracy when reading, their Retelling skills, their Fluency with reading a known text, etc. I also assess their use of different reading strategies when they read.

WRITING-We return to Narrative Writing.  They did well with Informational Writing, identifying the main idea and some details. ” Where can we find those details?  Pictures?  Text?”

MATH-Our District Math Assessment will be this week.  In our daily lessons we will be identifying different shapes, patterns with the shapes, counting to 50 with different starting numbers.  For example, “13, 14, 15, …..to 50”  or “32, 33, 34, …to 50.”

SCIENCE-We will continue with Magnets.

SOCIAL STUDIES-We will continue with NEEDS AND WANTS.

On a personal note…

I didn’t post last night because my daughter gave birth to a beautiful daughter!  We now have 3 granddaughters (7, 3, & newborn) and 1  grandson ( 3 years 0ld).  Life is wonderful!  🙂
