This week, in addition to our super fun visit to First Grade classrooms, games and giggles and even ice cream, we learned A LOT!!!!
Reading: We continue to practice silent e words and figuring out unknown words by using picture and word clues. I am more than half way through our DIBELS assessment. The kids are doing great and have made tons of progress.
Writing: We are working on our Story Hand stories.
Math: We are learning about base ten and counting on. We also continue to practice drawing pictures to help us with subtraction problems.
Science: We have learned a lot about the plant cycle and the butterfly life cycle. On Friday we learned about pollination-Kindergarten style! We made butterfly puppets and then flew them from flower to flower to gather and spread "pollen"- which thankfully did not make us sneeze! Check out the pictures and ask your child to explain how bees and butterflies help flowers. While you are at it-ask your child to sing the "Black and Yellow Bee" song.
Countdown for Next Week:
Monday: K-Boys dress like Kings and make decisions!
Tuesday: Lunch outside (Lunch ordering will be the same-hot or cold lunch is fine.)
Wednesday: Math Day
Thursday: Note Day-We'll write notes
Friday: Olympic Day-Kids need gym shoes all day!
