This week in kindergarten

Hi all:

There is no school on Wednesday, November 11th, due to Veteran's Day.

We had two new students join us last week.  The class was very welcoming, and Eunjae and Artem are a great additions to the classroom.

The students are working away at their auction project.  Many thanks to Morgan, Lea and all the other volunteers for their work on this.

After Veteran's Day we will begin working on our second vowel; the letter Ii.  Vowels are a challenge for kindergartners.  We have begun linking Cc to the /Kk/ sound.  I tell the students that in kindergarten a Cc usually makes the /Kk? sound.

This week's themes:

Theme Book: A Bed for the Winter
Literacy Theme: Sequence
New words: he, for
Words we know: I, am, the, little, a, to, have, is, we, my like
New letter: Cc & Ii
Letters we know: m, a, t, p, s
Math: combining shapes to make other shapes, patterns
Switch Social Studies and Science

Song: "Goodbye Old Paint"
Star of the Week: Sophia
