Kindergarten News and Notes
Mr. Koeller's 5K
This Week In Kindergarten...
Congratulations AJ! He was this week's King of Kindness. He has been awarded this opportunity because of his kindness in and out of the classroom throughout the week. Way to go AJ!
ALICE- This week for our ALICE lesson we drew maps of our school and circled the rally points where we would meet. (I have attached a picture at the bottom.)
Writing - Last week in Writing the kids worked hard to write sentences in their writing pieces and not just words. We also began using punctuation marks to end our sentences.
Reading - In Reading this week, students made reading sticks. We use these to point to each & every word as we read! It's fun finding sight words with our reading sticks. If these get lost, I have plenty more. Daily 5 continues to work really well for all 5K students!
Book-It
Ten students turned in their completed Book-It calendars for October (five from each class)! We have a challenge for the kids for November. If more than 10 students turn in their calendars at the end of this month, Ms. Saltzmann will dress up as a unicorn one day during the first week of December! Haha!
Math - Last week in Math we talked about hexagons, practiced counting to 100, practiced writing our numbers, and practiced addition/subtraction.
Science - Last week we tested our Three Little Pig Houses and began designing paintbrushes.
Social Studies - Last week in Social Studies we talked about different bodies of water and how water eventually makes it to our house/classroom.
As the weather is cooling down, please be sure to send your child with proper clothing!
If you have any other questions or concerns, please send them my way!
