KINDERGARTEN NEWS
THIS WEEK WE WILL STUDY THE CONSONANT Zz AS IN ZEBRA, ZOO, AND ZERO. THERE WILL BE NO SHOW 'N TELL ON FRIDAY.
INSTEAD OF SHOW 'N TELL STUDENTS WILL BE PRESENTING A REPORT ON A STATE. EACH CHILD SELECTED A STATE LAST FRIDAY AND BROUGHT HOME INFORMATION OF THE REPORT. THIS IS TO BE AN INTRODUCTION TO RESEARCH AND ORAL PRESENTATIONS; IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE ELABORATE.
WE WILL READ A NEW BIG BOOK, "SEE HOW WE GROW." WE WILL TALK ABOUT HOW PEOPLE CHANGE FROM BEING A BABY TO AN ADULT. WE WILL LEARN ABOUT THE LETTERS Dd AND Kk, THE H/F WORDS-LOOK, SEE. STUDENTS WILL LEARN ABOUT CAUSE AND EFFECT.
IN MATH WE WILL BE COUNTING BY TENS A LOT! WE WILL ESTIMATE COLLECTIONS; IDENTIFY DIMES AND TRADE 10 PENNIES FOR A DIME. STUDENTS WILL WORK WITH PATTERNS, IN PARTICULAR WITH ABB SOUND/MOVEMENT PATTERN. STUDENTS WILL COUNT DIMES TO 50 CENTS.
DUE TO THE MANY DELAYS OUR SCHEDULES ARE REALLY GETTING CHANGED. THE CHILDREN WERE TESTED ON READING WORD LIST #8 ON FRIDAY. THEREFORE, THEY TOOK HOME READING WORD LIST #9 IN THEIR FOLDERS ON FRIDAY. STUDENTS WILL BE ASSESSED ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 28TH.
THE CHILDREN ARE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE 100TH DAY OF SCHOOL. WE WILL CELEBRATE THAT DAY WITH LOTS OF COUNTING AND FUN. IF THE WEATHER COOPERATES, AND THERE ARE NO MORE SCHOOL CLOSINGS, WE EXPECT FEBRUARY 2ND TO BE THE 100TH DAY. MORE INFO ON THAT SPECIAL DAY WILL COME HOME SOON.
MONDAY, JANUARY 24TH WILL BE DAY 2 AND WE WILL HAVE ART.
HOMEWORK
