Kindergarten News Week of February 21

Dear Parents:  I hope everyone enjoyed the long week-end.  We'll be doing a number of activities this week related to President's Day.  A dental hygienist is coming to speak to kindergarten on Wednesday. 

Language Arts:  We'll be reading Bunny Day, an animal fantasy book this week. Our target skill is to recognize the sequence of a story.  We have several new high frequency words including:  are, that and do. 

Bible:  Our memory verse this week is from Galatians 6:9, “Let us not grow weary of doing good.”  We'll continue the lessons on being kind to one another. 

Math:  We'll copy line segments, order objects by length and measure using nonstandard units.  The children will make A-B-C patterns and act out addition stories. 

Handwriting:  Students are writing in their journals daily.  The size, spacing and proper use of upper and lower case letters will be practiced.  Lower case letters j, y and p  are highlighted this week. 

A special thank you goes out to Mrs. Lacy who is providing our snack as we eat through the alphabet with letter P on Friday. 

I'm so grateful to be able to teach your lovely children!  I thank God for them daily.
