Kindergarten news September 14-18


What We're Learning!!
 
Language Arts

Our two new wall words for the week are “can” and “see”.  Please help your child at home to ensure that they can read and spell the words each week. J We will also be finishing up our first book study from the series The Black Lagoon. We have learned about many people in our school and their roles.  Don’t forget to ask your child about what Daily 5 Station they were in.  We have it up and running!

 
 Math

We will be continuing our unit on numbers by working with one to one counting, and writing number quantities.  We are also working on Calendar Math each morning! We have started our Daily Five Math! Ask your child about the stations they have visited in our classroom.

 

Science/ Social Studies

We will be rapping up our five senses unit and starting  our FOSS kit with hands-on activities to discover wood and paper.  We can’t wait to discover all the properties of each and work with some of our science tools!   
 
In Social Studies, we are learning a lot about ourselves and each other in our All About Me unit.
We will continue to learn and use our citizenship quality, integrity. ( Always doing what is right, even when no one is looking)
