You are welcome to bring your donation to our "Rainy Day" silent auction basket whenever it is convenient for you. Thank you!!
Reading/Daily 5
This week we reviewed the sight words that we have learned so far and practiced writing upper and lower case "Ee". The students enjoyed listening to a fable entitled "The Bundle of Sticks" about a class of students who could not agree. Their teacher showed them how one stick could be easily snapped in two but a bundle of sticks could not. The Kindergarteners decided that the lesson this fable taught us was that we are much "stronger" when we all cooperate and work together. The students enjoyed reading a couple of new stories in their decodable readers as well.
Math
This week, we began discussing measurement. First we talked about different vocabulary used during measurement such as smaller, larger, longer, shorter, taller, and shorter. The students enjoyed using connecting cubes to measure various items in their math workbooks.
Social Studies
We have continued to discuss culture during Social Studies. This week's discussions were centered around how we celebrate different holidays (what traditions we have in our culture/families) as well as the national holidays we celebrate such as Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and President's Day.
Measurement in Math
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
