   Kindergarten Announcements

  

ELA

This week we enjoyed our Reader’s Theater unit called About Me.  We learned new vocabulary and sight words, practiced pacing and pausing correctly while reading aloud, and built comprehension by retelling the script.   

Math

We learned to compare numbers this week.  We built number towers and put them in order. The students also identified one more and one less than a given number using our number towers.  

Writing

We worked on creating pattern books this week and learned that they use words that repeat on each page. 

Social Studies

We learned about positional words to locate things and places.  We played “eye-spy” to practice describing the location of objects.  

Science

The students observed the path of the Sun in the summer and in the winter and realized that light from the Sun keeps the Earth warm.  We solved a mystery about what made marshmallows melt? Of course, it was the sun.  

P2: Gratitude

Being thankful for what we have is something that we can practice every day. We sang songs about being thankful and learned how to write a thank you letter.  

LIbrary books:  

Remember to bring library books back to school on Thursdays.  If your child did not bring one home, they chose to keep it in their book boxes at school.
