Please remember that next Friday (May 16), there is no school because of Kindergarten Orientation. Also, Thursday (May 15) is Early Release Day. The school book fair is coming up soon too. Miss Barlow will be sending home a notice next week.
We have been working on making connections to characters. We used the words, "I felt like that before,""I have done that before," and "That happened to me." The kindergarteners have been making connections throughout the day. Connections help us understand what we learn and remember it.
In math we are reviewing teen numbers. We are practicing the concept that a teen number is made up of one group of ten and some extra ones. We practice by building the number, writing the number, counting ten frames, counting tally marks, and of course singing songs.
We are also learning about seeds this week. We made germination bags for the window. We added one wet seed and one dry seed. We are observing them to see what happens-just like scientists.
Thank you for all the wonderful goodies for Teacher Appreciation Week!
