March 2nd Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News
Hello Everyone, what a interesting week!
This week on Monday we continued working on our printing (h) and phonological awareness. We had low attendance all week. It started snowing mid-day and the kids made mitten art inspired by the book, “The Mitten” by Jan Brett.
Tuesday was a snow day! I learned that if I don’t have power, I can’t call anyone who may have requested a school closure call as there was also no cell service. An email was sent out (not helpful if you also had no power!) but if this happens again, assume there is no school.
On Wednesday we continued working on letter understanding and had fun in the gym. The kids all had fun playing in the snow. Thanks for sending good outside gear! Kaizen and Celeste presented their rainbow fish art at the Whole School Meeting.
Thursday was pizza day! This was exciting. We also wrote about what a good day would be for us and later welcomed Quinten (aka Mr. Cucumber) in to lead up in a craft. The class went to music and then we went on a Winter scavenger hunt outside.
We are nearing the 100th day of school! It will be on April 3rd, the first day back from Spring Break. To celebrate 100’s day, your child is invited to bring in a collection of 100 items (buttons, stickers, beads, beans, gems etc.) in a jar, glued on a poster or in/on some other display case. It’s fun to see the number 100 represented visually in different ways! It is an exciting day so hopefully everyone can be there.
Important Dates to Remember:
March 17 Spring Break begins!
April 3 School back in session and 100’s Day! Clay workshop with Laura Keil.
April 10 Easter Monday (no school)
April 14 School in session
Warmly,
