ABC Countdown
We can't believe our final days of Kindergarten are approaching!! To celebrate the end of the year, we will be doing an ABC Countdown to the last day of school! Each day will be a different letter and different fun activity to celebrate all of our fun times in Kindergarten!!
TCE Terrific Texans
Last week we started a school-wide recognition called Terrific Texan. Throughout the week the learners can earn a Terrific Texan Ticket for outstanding citizenship, leadership and behavior from any teacher in the school. Each time that they earn a ticket they add it to our Kindergarten box. At the end of the day on Friday, Ms. Martin will draw 3 names from each grade to read over the announcements! A new round of earning tickets will begin next week! Keep up the great work!

We are having so much fun reading all of these wonderful books!
We will also continue working on our reading workshop stations and building stamina in our reading! Everyone is doing a great job!
Phonics Workshop and SNAP Words:
This week we will continue to review beginning and ending sounds in words and then begin our review of middle vowel sounds as well! Students will also continue learning our high frequency words and will add some more to our list! Here is a list you can use over the summer and for the remainder of the school year to practice and learn high frequency "SNAP" Words.
Math
In Math this week, we will be beginning our unit all about measurement! We will be introduced to measuring length, width, and capacity. This week we will focus on measuring length! We will learn about how to measure using nonstandard units. This will help lay our foundation for measuring with standard units in older grades! We will explore measuring length using a variety of measurement tools. I can't wait for a great week of learning all about measurement!!
Social Studies
In Social Studies this week, we will continue our unit on Needs and Wants. We will discuss ways to meet the needs of others, and the wants we can live without. We will learn about Goods (pencils, scissors, paper, toys, etc.) and Services (restaurants, stores, etc.)which are things people can do for us that can satisfy our wants.
Science
In Science, we will continue studying about Animal & Plant Habitats. We will learn where animals and plants live, and how living things survive (food, grow, reproduce) from their habitats. We have been drawing habitats on Draw and Tell. Please look at your child's ipad to see all their amazing drawings!
