Dear Families,
Yahoo! The kindergartners learned to read you and my. These two words are attached to this newsletter. Cut them apart and practice often! The boys and girls worked really hard on Months of the Year booklets. We want the boys and girls to be able to say the months of the year in order, and this book helps them practice. On Wednesday we briefly talked about Ground Hog’s Day. We celebrated our 100th day of school on Wednesday. The boys and girls made cereal necklaces using 100 pieces of colorful cereal. Centers included putting yellow objects in the appropriate box according to beginning sound, Yahtzee, yellow booklets, yellow yachts, reading books and magazines, journaling, and decorating our valentine sacks.
This week’s extra homework works with rhyming. Please do this homework with your kindergartner. Stickers will be given to those that return finished homework sheets.
Will’s missing snow pants have been found. We do, however, have a pair of black snow pants that is missing its owner. The brand name is Climate Control. The snow pants are size medium (5/6). The snow pants are the bib type with zippers on the front of the legs.
Next week we will be learning about the letter Rr. For sharing the boys and girls need to bring in something that starts with the letter Rr.
We have been doing a lot with glue sticks again. Please check with your student on the condition of his/her glue stick.
Last week we sent home a Redhawks Reading note and record sheet. Remember, we want kindergartners to read at least 10 minutes each day outside of school. Families are welcome to read more than the goal amount. Refer to the Redhawks Reading note if you have questions. As you finish recording the minutes you read at home on the appropriate strip on the chart, cut the strip off and send it to school. Please make sure that your child’s name is on the strip.
Valentines may be brought to school now. Our party will be on Monday, February 14th. We contacted volunteers to provide treats and napkins for it already.
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Howard, Mrs. Owens, and Mrs. Herink
