Things to Work on:
JWe are really working on our phone numbers. We have set a goal of getting a piece of bubble gum when everyone knows their phone number. Please work with your child on this at home.
J This week we practiced writing our alphabet. At the end of kindergarten students need to be able to write both the capital and lowercase letters for each letter.
What we have been up to:
Reading: We read the story Gregory the Terrible Eater and talked about new vocabulary words: nutritious, fussy, and terrible. This week the letters U and V were introduced. Students were able to practice sorting pictures that started with U and V, and the review letters G and H.
Math: This week in math we practiced several problem- solving problems. Students were able to share their thinking strategies on the smart board.
Science: We started talking about dental health. We focused on the importance of flossing and brushing our teeth each and every day. We also talked about healthy snacks that we can have to keep our teeth healthy and strong.
