We enjoyed our Mardi Gras celebration on Tuesday!

March 2-6, 2020

Reading: Our story this week is called “Abuela.” This is a fantasy about a little girl and her grandmother exploring a big city. Some Spanish words will be introduced. To build comprehension we will be identifying the setting in stories. The amazing words presented are: abuela, flock, airport, adventure, city, and harbor. The sight words to focus on are: here, go, and from. We will also be reading some Dr. Seuss books and participating in activities that accompany the books.

Phonics:  Our letter of the week is Ee. We will continue learning the initial and medial /e/ sounds in words.

Math:   Understanding Addition will be continued this week. We are joining 2 smaller groups to make a larger group. We are using manipulatives and acting out stories to help the children understand the concept. Please review the vocabulary words add, plus sign, equal sign, addend, and sum while you are practicing addition at home.

Reminders:

~ This week is Newspaper in Education Week. You are encouraged to read the paper with your child for 10-15 minutes each day. (You can pick out letters or sight words, count words in sentences, sound out familiar words, etc.). The “I’m a Reader” forms should be returned next week. Also, check the classified section. Send Mrs. Green’s ad to school with your child and they will get a reward.

~To celebrate Career Week, Kindergarten students are encouraged to dress up as their favorite hero on Friday, March 6^th. 

Fun with our friends from Bloomsburg on Friday to celebrate  Read Across America!
