Kindergarten news for March 14th- 18th

Kindergarten News for the week of March 14th – 18th


Next week we will be working on the letter Xx as in the end of fox and x-ray. Students will go on a treasure hunt throughout the building to find the “X” that marks the spot of their hidden treasure! This treasure hunt will be on Friday. How exciting!!! There will be NO Show and Tell.
I hope you enjoyed the newspaper activities this week!
In reading this week we will read the story One Little Mouse. This is a rhyming concept story that focuses on consonant blends and sequencing. Continue to read the little books I send home for fluency practice.
In kidwriting the children are beginning to attempt to write 2 or more sentences on their own each day! This is scary for some children but some took right off with it!
In math we will work with tangram pieces, identify small and large shapes, begin to measure length, graph a picture on a pictograph and explore slides, flips and turns with shapes.
***Please remember that gym is always on DAY 2---wear sneakers!
Monday will be day 2 on our rotation schedule.
***Library day is always on Wednesday! Please help your child locate his/her book so they can get a new book each week!
