Friday Note - 3/13/15
Events
of the Week:
Our theme
was weather. We spent the week learning
about different types of weather. The
student’s that earned their 3rd quarter reading challenge enjoyed a
magic show performance by Ronald McDonald on Tuesday!
Math:
In math we reviewed addition and subtraction. Please continue to work on this skill at home
since switching between the two is often difficult in kindergarten. Remind them to pay extra close attention to
the + and – to know which operation they need to use. Please look over the assessment pages coming
home and work with your child on the needed skills.
Language
Workshop: Each day we focused on a different type of
weather. We read different informational
books as well as fiction books about weather.
Writing Workshop: We
wrote an opinion piece as a class about our favorite special class. The
students then wrote an opinion piece about their favorite play center. Please look over your child’s writing and
continue to practice at home.
Word Study: Our sight words were “do”
and “not”. We practiced making –at words
such as cat, hat, bat, that and flat.
