What we’re
Workin’ on this week..
Language Arts / Social Studies
This week in LA and SS we are continuing our unit on Community Helpers! We will be doing a research project with a partner on our favorite community helper! If your profession is community service oriented and you would like to come and share with kindergarten about it please let us know! We would love to have you come and talk! We are looking for police officers, fire fighters, doctors, dentist, nurses, mail carriers, etc... Please let us know!
Math
This week we are learning all about subtraction! We are focusing on making sure that we always subtract with the larger number first! As we get better with our subtraction skills, we will be working on creating story problems based on a given answer. ( The answer needs to be 7- Learners will determine __ - __ = 7)
Here are the strategies that we have learned!
If you have not tried out Reflex Math with your child, it might be a good time to try. Please remember, if your child becomes frustrated- please stop and let your teacher know and we will provide different ways to practice addition and subtraction at home! :)

TCE Garden Design Challenge
We are going to have a Garden Design Challenge in which all learners can turn in drawings, models, paintings, etc. in order to show what they would like for our garden area to look like for TCE. We currently have several beds and have been working with a company, Real School Gardens, in order to find even more ways to incorporate real world, hands-on applications within our garden to enrich our academic learning.
We are going to have our TCE Student Council work with a committee at the campus for choosing final selections for the overall design. Until then, any ideas are welcome! We are going to work with our Dad's Club/Green Team Volunteers in order to get going, but would love more helpers for when we get to our build!
Our goal is to build and get the designs in place for additional areas of the garden the week of May 15th.
If you would like to be a part of this planning process or building, please fill out the following Google form:
We will reach out to you toward the middle of April!
