Week of January 20

We're back for another week of Kindergarten! Our resources this week are Art, P.E., and Music. Our Fun Friday Activity is Backwards Day! That means wearing clothes, hats, and accessories backwards! We still need volunteers for our Fun Friday snacks this week. 

Picture Day is Tuesday 1/21!

SKILLS

Our students will have another week of their leveled Reading Mastery programs. We will also be working on this week's sight words:

READING

This week we will be reading "What's It Like to Be a Fish?"and "Fish is Fish" (found below). We will be comparing and contrasting these two texts that are on the same topic but are different kinds of text (non-fiction vs. fiction). Students will also be introduced to important vocabulary words from the text

WRITING

We will be working on informational writing based on our week's story. We will focus on writing facts about fish based on what we learned from "What's It Like to Be a Fish?".

MATH

We will be finishing up on our unit of Teen Numbers. We'll be working on decomposing and composing teen numbers into a group of ten and some ones. Students will be taking an assessment this week on the entire unit. Please be sure to review teen numbers and how to build them with your child at home. We will also continue to work on counting to 100 by 1's and counting to 100 by 10s'.

SCIENCE
We will continue working on our Sound unit and how it is made and how it is a form of energy that can cause movement as it travels.
