What's happening for the week of May 14-18...

I am sorry that I did not update the site on time this week!  I am running a little behind.  I will update this site at least once each week.  Please check it often for information about our class.   

We will continue our unit on dinosaurs.  We have learned about herbivores/carnivores, extinct/living, etc... Ask your child to sing our dinosaur songs to you!  :)

This week's sight words:   review all words
Please work on writing and reading sight words at home.  The kindergarten list is on the kindergarten web site.  Also, there is a link on the web site that has other high frequency words that your child will see in many books. 


Math:  We finished the time chapter.  We are moving on to addition. (joining sets)  We have worked on addition throughout the spring semester.  We have used a number line and draw dots to help with the addition facts. 

 

Monday:
Tuesday:  PE
Wednesday:  Computer
Thursday: 
Friday: 

Important Dates: 
May 21 - Kindergarten Awards - 1:00
May 24 - Last Day of School - Early Dismissal - 11:00

AWARDS DAY:  We are excited about our awards program.  We will sing a few songs, receive awards, and have a slide show.  You will not want to miss it!  I hope to see you there!  :) 

HOME READERS:  These books are designed to build reading skills.  After you read the story with your child, he/she may enjoy writing about or drawing their favorite part of the story.  Your child may also retell the story in his/her own words.  Please practice retelling the story at home.  Both of these activities build reading comprehension skills.  Please read with/to your child every night!

SUMMER READING PROGRAM:  I sent home a packet concerning the Greentree Summer Reading Program.  I cannot stress how important it is to continue reading through the summer!  This program will provide a good way to keep your child reading this summer.  

I added a link to our kindergarten web site.  Check it out!

Have a great week!
Mrs. Russell
