Dear Santa, We have been very good in school!

Week of December 18-22, 2017

2017 is quickly coming to an end. The students have been working so hard this year. I am seeing tremendous progress! We have a busy schedule this week filled with some, holiday activities. Tuesday we will be visiting the high school to see the band/chorus program. Wednesday is the kindergarten Polar Express Day. Thursday is the PBIS Reward day. Friday the children will have the NED Show kindness adventure program.

 We will be using Christmas stories this week to practice our Reading skills. While reading the stories we will discuss characters, setting, plot, and the sequence of the story. We will also search for sight words, compare and contrast stories, and classify and categorize the information in some of the books.

Topic 4 begins in Math this week. The unit compares and orders numbers from 0 through 10. Please continue to practice counting to 100, identifying the numbers, and writing the numerals 0-20. 

Reminders:

~ Students will be dismissed at 12:00pm on Friday, December 22^nd. School will resume on Tuesday, January 2^nd.~ Outdoor recess continues throughout the winter. Please dress your child appropriately for the cold weather.

~ Please remember to practice the sight words and fundamental skills over the break. (letters and sounds, rhyming, identifying numbers, counting to 100, writing 0-20, etc.) Also take time to have your child practice reading with words they can sound out and blend. 

Take some time to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the holiday season!

~ Mrs. Green

All of the other reindeer!
