Welcome Back! We hope our students and families enjoyed Winter Break! January is an exciting month in Kindergarten! In Language Arts, we are reading winter books by Jan Brett. We will practice using various comprehension strategies such as inferencing and sequencing. In Word Work, we are continuing to practice the "Phonics Dance" to master our letters and sounds as well as learning "hunks and chunks" or parts of words (digraphs, endings, and word families). In Writing Workshop, we are using 4-square graphic organizers to organize our writing as we recall key details from informational text and write about animals. In Math, we are continuing to practice combining quantities with various counting games. In Science, we will study the season of winter as well as animals and their adaptations. In Social Studies, we will study Martin Luther King, Jr. and learn about his contributions and impact.

Here are our Special Area Rotations! Please make sure your child brings their library book back to school on the days they have Library and wears tennis shoes on the days they have P.E.
