Academic Update
In math this week students will be learning about counting, comparing heights, and coins. We also will start on a class phone book. Please practice for this as much as possible. Students who do not know how to write numbers yet can simply memorize and dictate.
Students filled their book bags Friday! It was a very exciting event and I was impressed with how everyone got right to the task of reading. The kindergarteners used picture and context clues very well. We will continue to work on independent reading this week.
Writing Workshop will continue as well, I am encouraging students who are ready to begin sound spelling words to describe the objects and actions in their pictures.
Containers
Kindergarteners will begin using the water table this week. If you can, send in assorted containers for us to use. This is in preparation for introducing concepts of volume and capacity. Unusually shaped containers are especially interesting.
I look forward to another wonderful week!
