Thanksgiving Is For Giving Thanks!

November 21, 2011

Greetings Kindergarten Families!

THIS WEEK:

We will wrap up the theme: We’re A Family!  The conclusion of this theme is very timely as families prepare to come together and celebrate Thanksgiving. 

Below is an outline of the concepts that will be taught this week.

Language Arts ·       Identifying beginning sounds ·       Segmenting Words (breaking them into sounds: c-a-t) ·       Writing Narratives

Math We will review several concepts this week as we review previously taught skills. ·       Counting ·       Graphing

Social Studies ·       Past and Present ·       Thanksgiving

LIBRARY:

Please check in your child’s backpack for their library “book bag”.  Inside is the book(s) that were purchased at the book fair.  Every student received a book from the fair. Please take them out and enjoy reading the stories at home.  Students will select new library books the week following Thanksgiving break.

SIGHT WORDS:

I am pleased with the progress I am seeing from all students as we learn new words by sight. There will be NO sight word homework this week. 

REMINDER:

There is NO school November 23- 25, 2011. 

I hope that everyone enjoys the Thanksgiving holiday.  Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns at 443-8285. 

Have a great week!

Mrs. Deci
