April 4-8
April 8, 2005
Dear Families,
We learned about the letter Zz this week. Now we know all the letters, and we will continue working on reading words! We painted zebras and made Zz booklets. Days of the week were reviewed by making little booklets. Zoos and zoo animals were discussed. We learned that s and h put together make one sound, and we learned the word she. Each child planted a zinnia or zucchini in a milk carton. These future plants are in the greenhouse across from our room. The plants will be sent home later, after they have had a chance to grow. Other activities this week included playing word bingo, “building” a zoo, working with nickels, and listening to a zoo book on a tape.
Sharing for the rest of the year is free choice.
Kindergartners will have the week of May 2nd - 6th off because of kindergarten round up. They will return on Monday, May 9th.
****We need a snapshot or school picture of every kindergartner for an art project in May. We would like you to send the picture as soon as possible! These will be used in a project so they will not be returned to you.****
Grandparent’s Days are scheduled for Thursday, May 19th and Friday, May 20th. Grandparents may attend either of those days. Official invitations will be decorated next Friday and sent home.
Have a fantastic weekend!
Mrs. Howard, Mrs. Owens, and Mrs. Herink
