April 14th Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News
Hello families, we had another fun week here in Kindergarten!
Monday, we learned a bit more about how to take care of our duck eggs and made predictions about how many eggs will hatch. We also brainstormed ideas about what might go in Ms. Thompson’s Easter basket during writing time. It was Music day and we made Easter egg art. In the afternoon, we created beautiful nature bracelets outside.
On Tuesday, we had another dance class with Kristen Lewis and then we Later we played an egg themed math game and went to the library. It was strange to have SNOW off and on, we are ready for spring.
Wednesday was our Whole School Meeting, more writing practice (focus was adding spaces between words) and burning off steam in the gym. The class went to nature studies and practiced reading. Later we noticed changes in the garden and explored the forest.
On Thursday we had free-choice in the gym, went on TWO Easter egg hunts (one for math and one for fun) and we continued working on our animal story books.
Next week we are welcoming another new student! Our class feels nice and full. The kids have all been so inclusive and have made our new kids feel at home.
I am thrilled to be able to announce that parents are welcome to come watch the Spring Showcase if they wish. Ms. Mullen just asks that if you intend to come, to please let them know at the office beforehand. Please arrive at 1:00pm to find a seat and browse the student displays before the show begins at 1:15pm.
