Monday Message

Dear Parents,
 
Here are some things we have been working on in Kindergarten...
 
Sight Words: said, come, look

Guided Reading:
Students are very excited about the small books they are reading during guided reading time.  Students are becoming more independent with some of the reading strategies I have taught them. Ask your child about "lips on a fish" and "Stretchy the Snake".
 
Writer’s Workshop:
We learned a new way to sing ,“Old Mac Donald”.  We decided that instead of E-I-E-I-O, it should be A-E-I-O-U!  We made a class chart to help us remember the vowel sounds. We discussed how every word should have at least one vowel in it. We are using this vowel chart to check our writing to make sure our words have vowels in them.
 
 Learning Communities:
St Anthony's donated some gloves, masks and hats for us to play with during dramatic play. The kids get to take them home after they use them.
 
Thanksgiving Feast:
*Thank you to everyone who offered to help cut the yarn for the necklaces. We got that finished, so thank you!
*If you would like to donate fabric markers for our Native American shirts by Friday, that would be wonderful!
*Please don’t forget to turn in a white t-shirt, we will be working on them Friday

Thanks and have a great week!
