Kindergarten Newsletter
March 9th - March 13th 

I just thought last week was wild. This week has Friday the 13th, a full moon, and time change. I. Am. Not. Sure. I. Am. Ready!!! Let’s just bite the bullet and take it on! J haha! We will continue moving through short /i/ words. We’ve done very well with these words this week. I am very proud of these kiddos. We are going to continue manipulating words and becoming stronger readers. I am very excited to see how much they will take off in the last few short months. We only have about 9.5 weeks left. We will keep working on our habitats. We have done wetlands and deserts so far. This week we will hit on grasslands and rainforest. We’ve started our project at home! Don’t forget about your habitat project! J In math, we will move on through some more measurement and keep working on those numbers. We are getting very good at breaking them down and manipulating them. It is so important for them to fully understand how numbers work. Report cards will go home on Friday and Spring pictures are on Thursday. You do not have to send them in their uniform that day. J If you want to send them in something and have them change feel free to do so. Just let me know!

Secret Tips:
I’ve started showing our kiddos these reading strategies below. They are very helpful in reminding kiddos of ways to help them figure out words instead of stalling or guessing. It’s a great habit to get into even at this age because this is where reading starts! J We don’t want to have to break habits later!
