Kindergarten
Newsletter for the Week of December 10th – 14th
Next week in phonics we will be learning the letter Kk as
in kite. We will have show and tell on
Thursday! We will learn “k” now and in
several weeks we will learn the letter “Cc”.
On the spelling sound test we will write k,c since they share the
same sound. Your child was tested on
word list 6 today. Word list 7 is in
your child’s folder to practice for the next week. Please help your child each day for a few
minutes. If the entire list is too much
try half of the list each day.. The sight words should be easy. We practice these daily in our decks!
In math, we will be copying line segments, shapes and designs
on a geoboard, estimating collections, counting by 10’s, identifying and
learning about dimes, identifying, creating and extending ABB sound and
movement patterns.
The Kindergarten Christmas program for the parents will be at the high school at 9:30 on Monday-
December 17th.
In reading next week we will read the story See How We Grow. This story is a biography about twin girls. Just for fun, this week we would like to see
a baby picture of each child in our class to see how they’ve changed. (Birth to one year) Please send it in with your child’s name on
the back and in a baggie. We will also
be learning about the comprehension skill of cause and effect.
Monday will be day 2 on the rotation schedule. Please remember that gym day is day 3 on our
schedule. Please wear sneakers.
The list of our sight words is growing! I will attach a list that you may want to
practice. These will help your child to
read the little take-home stories better!
We would like to thank Eric Hughes, the postman, for taking
time out of his busy schedule to come to
visit us and deliver our important letter to Santa!
