Happenings for the Week of May 10 – 14, 2010

Our field trip will be this Wednesday, May 12. Please remember to send your child to school with a bagged lunch and a drink. Children should wear sneakers that day, no flip flops or sandals and also should wear their blue NSE t-shirt. If there is rain the morning of the 12th, or if you are unsure of the status of the trip, please call the office after 7:00 am. If the weather does not cooperate than the trip will be postponed until May 19th. Please also make sure your child is in school on time that day as we are leaving as soon as the buses arrive in the morning.
Next week in phonics we will be working on digraph oo as in hook and tooth. With the field trip being on Wednesday, we will not have show and tell on Friday. Next week we will be testing on our sight word list so please continue to review that list.
In reading, our story this week will be “The Little Engine that could”. This week we will be reviewing the plot, which in kindergarten is identifying the beginning, middle, and end of the story.
In math, we are finishing up our chapter on subtraction. This is our last chapter in the kindergarten math book. For the remainder of the year, we will review and practice the math skills we have learned throughout the year.
Just a reminder that Kindergarten graduation is May 25th at 6:30 pm in the North Schuylkill High School Auditorium.
The school carnival is Monday, May 24th. If you would like to volunteer your time that day, please contact the PTO.

Have a wonderful weekend and Mother’s Day!
