February 15th Edition of
The K/1 Class News
Hello Everyone!
We had a busy week. The class has begun writing their own stories inspired by story workshop. They have been trying to work on their writing goals and continue to grow as writers. We had another lesson on compound words and the class is ready to move on. KK from The Circle visited again and we talked about fair versus equality, a tricky concept for some!
Wednesday was Valentine’s Day and our Student Led conferences! The kids were excited to fill the mailboxes with cards. A great lesson on giving! Thanks to those of you who made it out to celebrate your child’s learning. It was so cute watching how proud each child was to share with you some of what they have been working on. For those of you who were unable to attend, I will be offering another chance to come at 3pm on Tuesday. Please RSVP if you plan on attending so I can set up.
We saved our Valentine’s celebration for Thursday and the kids had a fun day. Thanks to the parents who sent in snacks to share, it always makes these days more special.
Mrs. Cheryl will be returning to complete her practicum starting on Tuesday! We look forward to having her back. She will be with us until late April.
