Kindergarten News for the week of February 20 – 24, 2012

Please note that school will not be in session on Friday, Feb. 17 and Monday, Feb.20, due to the Presidents’ Day holiday and teacher in-service days. School will resume on Tuesday, Feb 21. It will be day 2 in our five day cycle. We will have music class.
Next week in phonics we will be covering the letter Dd. Instead of show and tell, we will have dinosaur presentations. In your child’s folder you will find an explanation of our dinosaur project and the dinosaur that has been assigned to your child. We will have our presentations on Friday, Feb. 24. Also, the next word list will be sent home today. Please continue to review the words each evening. I will be testing the children also on Friday the 24th of Feb.
In reading we will be enjoying the story “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”. Our focus skill will be to identify the characters in the story.
In math class we will be counting by 10s using dimes, creating designs using different geometric shapes, reviewing the seasons of the year, and learn to read and create picture graphs.
Have a wonderful four day weekend!!
