Friday February 4

Today was a fabulous Friday at school!  We worked hard and finished our Winter books.  The winter books will come home on Monday in our colored folders for us to share with you at home.  We are very excited to share and read our books with you!  Home reading will come home on Monday.

We read the story Robot in Love and then we did a guided drawing to make our own Valentine's robot.  We went the gym and began working with skipping ropes to learn how to skip.

We are working on rhyming words and loved our new center on the smart board.  Please practice making rhyming words with your child this weekend.  At school we have practiced rhyming words with cat, dog and box.

Happy Weekend - we hope everyone is able to get outside and enjoy the warmer weather!

Valentine's Day February 14

Children will be invited to bring valentines for their classmates. We ask that your child signs the cards prior to bringing them to school. Please leave the "to" section blank as it is very time consuming for the children to match all their classmates' names to valentine's day bags. If you choose to bring valentine's day cards please bring enough for your child's class. 

AM Conley- 19 students

AM Mask-19 students

PM McLean-19 students

PM Mask-17 students 

Please do not send any homemade treats with the valentines. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions please email your child's teacher.

AM kindergarten looked fantastic all dressed up for Halloween! We had a fun day at school.  Today we were Scientists and took a closer look at pumpkins. We watched a video from Sci Kids about pumpkin dissection and learned about all the parts of a pumpkin. We learned about estimation and had to estimate about the height of a pumpkin using cubes, the circumference of a pumpkin using string and estimated the number of ribs on the pumpkin. We then measured to see how accurate we were with our guesses. We worked in groups.  Our last job was to predict what would happen when we placed a pumpkin in water. Would it sink or float? We used tally marks to share our thinking. Ask your child what happened when we placed the pumpkin in water.  We read the story, "The Happy Pumpkin" and talked about jack o lanterns and the different faces. We made our own pumpkins using paper.  We had music with Mrs. Coulson.  Friday is PM kindergarten. PM kindergarten are invited to wear the...

Today we exchanged home reading. Your child took home 2 books to read this week. Please return them on Thursday. We are looking at poetry in our class. We read the story, "Hello Ocean" and had to think of one word to describe the ocean. We made a list and talked about using descriptive words to speak about the ocean. We used our 5 senses to help us describe the ocean and created a class poem. We will be focusing on creating ocean creature poems over the next few weeks in class.  We played bump in math. It is a game that focuses on counting on from the biggest number using dice.  AM Kindergarten and Mrs. Mask's PM class had music. Mr. Campbell's class had gym. We practiced rhyming words and wrote our own on whiteboards.  We had centers.  Friday is PM kindergarten.
