Week of April 29

Another week of Kindergarten's Alphabet Countdown!! :) Make sure to check the Conduct sheet and see whats happening every day.

Resources this week are Mon-Art and Tues- P.E. You'll notice we don't have Resource again after this until May 10. This is due to Upper Grades taking the Art and Music Tests for the District.

Friday is Hat Day and no one has signed up for Fun Friday Snacks. So let us know if you're interested. 

MATH

We are feep into subtraction. Some problems the students get and we can see a clear understanding of "take away." Then there are some problems that they just haven't grasped. So make sure to be practicing take away at home. It's great to do this during dinner when the students are eating.

Here are two videos for subtraction practice:

WRITING

As mentioned the past few weeks... it's Kindergarten Memory Book time. :) 

SAXON/ READING SKILLS

So last week was a little busy with i-Ready Reading testing, so we didn't get to complete all of our Saxon papers. So this week we are practicing the "oooooooo" sound of double O. It can be tricky, so make sure to discuss it with your child. 

Our sight Words are: our, say, any & through. Our blend is SN- and our focus vowel is U (long and short).

READING

We are going to be reading Stephanie's Ponytail. We are discussing the main idea of the story and thinking of other stories we have listened to that are similar. ( I wasn't impressed enough with the vocabulary to focus on it this week.)
