Dear Parents

We are all doing wonderful today.  The children are happy and unaware.  Just wanted to let you know.  Lots of extra hugs and smiles going around today.  I am praying for all of you.

December 13th, 2012

Just a quick note to fill you in on what is happening in our Kindergarten and a few reminders.

*In Math, we are working on addition and subtraction problems.  We have also been discussing 3 D shapes and re-visiting patterns.
*In Science, the children are learning about properties of matter.  We have been experimenting with texture, shape, color and weight.
*The children are working hard in their WYNN reading groups.  Their success is dependent on you reading with them each night.  They also need to practice writing and reading CVC words.  As a whole class, they are having difficulty with this.
*We continue to write small moments while reading mentor texts like Cynthia Rylant's The Relatives Came.
*I have read the children many versions of the Gingerbread Man story.  They are thoroughly enjoying it!  Ask them about the Gingerbread Girl and the Gingerbread Baby.
*We changed tables.  Ask them who they sit with now.
