Hello everyone!! I really can NOT believe we are
already half way through September!! I am having such a great time with all of
your kids. I hope they are telling you about all of the fun stuff we have been
doing! As many kids may have told you, if someone gets on orange they get to go
on our wall of fame!! We already have 56 stars on our wall of fame….which is so
AWESOME!!
In literacy we have been working on making text-to-text
connections. We have also been talking about how to treat our friends. Ask your
kindergarten kid to sing our friendship song!! The past couple of weeks we have
been working on the high-frequency words ‘can’ and ‘the’! We are becoming great
readers already!! We have also
been working on rhyming and beginning sounds. This week we got introduced to
Spot, he is our dog puppet that helps us read. We LOVE Spot!! We learned about
the letter ‘M’ and the sound it makes…ask your kindergartener to tell you!! In
writing we have been working on telling stories from our lives. We have begun
to write words and match our words to our pictures!
Our MEMORY literacy station!! |
In math we have been working on numbers 1-10. Thanks
so much for doing homework with your child. This will help you better
understand all of the cool stuff we have been doing. We love our math mats and
building numbers!!
Math Mats!! |
We just finished up talking about safety. I know we
have some super safe kids!! Please
remember to discuss these things with your child. This week we started talking
about American symbols. The symbols we will learn are the Liberty Bell, the
Statue of Liberty, the American Flag, the White House, and Bald Eagle. We are
making another awesome book and doing some cool crafts. On Tuesday we will
celebrate Constitution Day. Please be watching for a family project that will
be coming home that day.
Bald Eagle!! |
We also learned a new song this week called the Tooty-Ta. We love the song and dancing to it!! Take a look:)
Great Dancers!! |
Also, I will be starting home visits next week. I
can’t wait to see all of you!! You will also be getting a form about
conferences. Please return all of your papers by September 26th!!
Have a great weekend and GO BIG RED!!
Love- Mrs. Schroeder
