Dear Parents,
As we head into our final week before Spring break, I hate to say it, but the weeks after the break are going to just fly by! We have a lot to pack in and a lot of upcoming events, so keep updating your calendars with the information at the bottom of this e-mail. You will notice there are A LOT of upcoming events!
This week, we have a review week again with the letters Ff, Hh, Ss. We will also have a new sight words, you. Since we are having so many review weeks with the letters, we are now working on numbers and vowels in the Handwriting without Tears program.
We are continuing our science unit on wood & paper. We are now on the "paper" part of the unit. We have many great hands-on activities ahead of us in the upcoming weeks, including making a paper mache project. Another upcoming project will be looking at boxes. Please send in empty food boxes, etc. from around your house-- cereal boxes, cracker boxes, packaging boxes (not too big!), snack boxes, etc., will be very helpful. The kids will get to take apart the boxes and look at how they are made, as well as make fun building projects out of the boxes. Start collecting boxes from your house & send them in after Spring Break please.
This week's sharing is solid shape sharing, as explained last week. Please send your child with something shaped like a sphere, cone, cube or cylinder. No need to hide the item or have clues, just have your child be prepared to tell what shape the item is. This is a chance for children to see these shapes in the "real world" and identify shapes all around them.
We have Spring Fling this Friday, of course. Thank you for answering the call for help!! We have many parents joining us and if you'd still like to come, please feel free.
If you haven't already, please return the permission slip for the upcoming field trip to Emma Prusch Farm so that they don't get forgotten over the Spring Break. Blue Bags will not go home this Wednesday due to the upcoming vacation week, but please try to return the bags tomorrow.
Moms will want to note that we have set the date for our Mother's Day Celebration-- Muffins with Mom. This is an important day for the kindergartners to celebrate their moms, so please try to attend. If you cannot attend, you are welcome to send an aunt, grandma, special friend, etc. in your place. Muffins with Mom will be the Friday before Mother's Day on May 9th. Another date to mark (even though it seems early) is our Kindergarten Promotion Ceremony, which will be held on Tuesday, June 10th. This is a celebration of our year together, where we take a look back at all our special events and is our official send-off to first grade. We hope that by giving these dates ahead of time, working parents will be able to take a little time off to join us for these special events.
Enjoy your Spring Break!

Week of 3/23
Dear Parents,
Thank you to all of you for meeting with me the past two weeks for conferences. We have one trimester left together to prepare your children for first grade-- let's continue working as a team to make that happen.
We are back to a normal schedule now that conferences are over. We will have centers again on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Please check the schedule on the website-- I have now updated the schedule on the website through the end of the year. Let me know of any conflicts. "Mrs. R.," our student teacher is back with us in a week, and she may be able to sub for helper parents here and there, so just let me know in advance.
We have a new consonant this week, Xx, and the Alphafriend is "Mr. X-Ray." For this sound, we mostly focus on it as an ending sound, which sounds like "ks." We will look at words like box, ox, mix, six, etc. to study the ending sound. After introducing another vowel last week (Oo), we will be able to do even more blending and spelling on our own. Keep practicing! We also have a new sight word, the. Children should now know 25 of our 40 sight words. See the list of words on our webpage for more reinforcement, or go to http://www.spellingcity.com, click on "find a list," and enter my last name under teacher search. You will be able to see the full 40 word list, a 25 word kindergarten list, and the expanded 50 word list that includes more first grade words. Your children will be able to play word games on this website to become more familiar with these words. I have now updated the list on our kindergarten website to organize the words in order of the 25 they need to know first, then the remaining 15, so that you know which ones to really reinforce.
The sharing this week is book share. Please have your child bring in a favorite book from home and be prepared to tell the title of the book and a bit about what it is about. Also, have a favorite page bookmarked.
We will begin a new math topic for the next two weeks on solid shapes, or 3-D shapes. The shapes we cover in this topic are: sphere, cone, cube, cylinder. Children should be able to correctly identify and name these shapes regardless of orientation. They should also be able to describe them in terms of numbers of corners and vertices. They should also be able to relate these shapes to real-world objects-- for example, a can is the shape of a cylinder and a ball is the shape of a sphere, etc. To reinforce this concept, we will have "solid shape sharing" next week, where the children will bring in an object from home and tell which 3D shape it is, so start thinking about what item to bring next week.
On Friday, April 4th, we will have a favorite kindergarten event, "Spring Fling." This is an afternoon of spring fun-- special art projects, face painting, outside fun, music, and festivity! We cannot make this event happen without your help. Spring Fling runs from 9:30 to 11:00 (morning) and 1:00 to 2:30 (afternoon). Please email us and let us know if you can help on that day!
The afternoon class has a Wacky Wednesday this week. Class runs from 10:00 to 1:20. Also, if you haven't already, please let daycares know about the additional Wacky Wednesday on April 16th for the field trip.
Another plea again to please try and turn the Blue Bags in on Monday of each week. As the year progresses, we are getting more late blue bags, and it makes it difficult to get them ready for the upcoming week. Thank you so much for your help!

3/26: March's Wacky Wednesday

Week of 3/16
Dear Parents,
Happy St. Patrick's Day tomorrow! We enjoyed all the fun with sharing leprechaun traps last week, and I thank you for your help and encouragement with the traps! I hope that it was a fun family project-- I know that the kids certainly seemed to enjoy sharing them and on Monday, we will see what happened after setting them up! Tomorrow, in honor of St. Patrick's Day, there is also another school spirit day-- it is "Wear Green" day. Children can wear as much green as possible to participate in this spirit day.
We continue parent-teacher conferences this week. Please contact me if you need a reminder of your date or time. I enjoyed meeting with many of you last week, and I am looking forward to the conferences this week-- it's great to share your child's successes with you. It's hard to believe that we are already in our last trimester of kindergarten. The time will pass quickly in this last 3 months, and before you know it, we will be moving on to first grade! After we meet, please be sure to praise your children for the progress they've made, and also continue to support them in areas where they still need reinforcement to meet end-of-year standards.
This week, we have another review week with letters. We are reviewing the letters t, k, and n. However, we do have a new vowel, Oo, for Ozzy Octopus. This means that we can now read and spell CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words with short a, short i, and short o. Please keep practicing with your children spelling and reading such words as pit, pat, pot, hit, hat, hot, lip, lap, lop, etc. We also have a new high frequency word: said. Our art and writing will center around the theme of Spring.
Our sharing this week will be Letter of the Week sharing for the letters t, k, n, or even the short-vowel sound of o. Children should hide an item beginning with one of those letters in a bag and write three clues about what's inside the bag. Many children are now using their writing skills to write their own clues-- keep up the great work!
There are still no centers this week due to parent-teacher conferences.
Please remember to send in your child's Blue Bag tomorrow amidst all the excitement of checking the leprechaun traps. It really makes it MUCH easier to get the bags ready again for Wednesday if they all come in on Monday.
Upcoming Events:
3/17-3/21: Parent-Teacher Conferences
3/26: March's Wacky Wednesday
3/29: Bocce Ball Tournament & Auction @ Campo Di Bocce

Week of 3/9
Dear Parents,
We hope you are getting used to the new schedule after "springing forward!" Please ratchet back those bedtimes accordingly tonight, or we will have some tired children all week long ;)
The upcoming week is a review week in language arts. We will start to have many more of these, as we have now learned 19 of the 26 letter sounds. We will be reviewing Dd & Zz this week, as well as reviewing for and have. From our expanded word list (those that are also covered in first grade) we will introduce the words of and not.
We will continue with a math review also. We will continue to cover the concepts of addition, subtraction, and number sense. Overall, we are very impressed with how well the children are understanding these topics. Thank you so much for all the reinforcement you've been providing at home!
The kids continued to enjoy our science unit, "Wood & Paper," this past week. We checked the absorbency of different woods and sawdust and even made our own particleboard. We will get back to the "Paper" part of this unit after conferences are over.
We are looking forward to seeing some of the wonderful leprechaun traps tomorrow! It's exciting to see the children's creations, and they are so proud to share and talk about how there trap will work. On Monday through Friday (on their share day) they will have that opportunity. They will share their design with the class and tell us how it will hopefully catch a leprechaun! Then, we will all come in next Monday and see if we were successful!
For the Campo di Bocce auction/fundraising event, both Mrs. Sheikh & I will be auctioning off an "after school playdate" that we will be hosting in K2. When the bidding starts, you will be bidding on an after-school playdate for three children and a friend each (from each class) to come and join us after school one day for choice time, playground time, and a special snack. Think of it as an hour-plus long playdate after school that you don't have to host!! Please check this and other items out at the auction.
Parent-teacher conferences begin Monday. If you have forgotten your date/time, please e-mail me. There will be no centers for the next two weeks due to Mrs. Sheikh's and my conference schedule.
Please note a few events below in the "upcoming events." On April 4th, we will have a fun celebration called Spring Fling. This is an annual kindergarten event. Children will participate in many special spring-inspired centers for the duration of their school day. There will be spin art, seed planting, outside games and activities, etc. We will need many parent volunteers to run the centers on this day, so please plan on joining us if you are able. On April 16th, we have our field trip to Emma Prusch Farm. I have already heard from a few of you that you'd like to join in on this trip as a chaperone. I know space is limited, but I would love to have those who are able to join us. This is a really hands-on field trip, so those who elect to be chaperones will need to be willing to get involved with the farm animals, etc. If space restrictions or work obligations (or an aversion to farms!) prevent you from coming on the farm field trip, please consider helping with Spring Fling instead. Remember that the field trip will be an additional Wacky Wednesday for the p.m. class.
Please remember to send in your child's Blue Bag tomorrow amidst all the excitement of starting to bring in the leprechaun traps. It really makes it MUCH easier to get the bags ready again for Wednesday if they all come in on Monday.
Upcoming Events:
3/10: "Helping Your Child Succeed in School" Part 2, 6:00-7:30 in the AV Cafeteria

Week of 3/2
Dear Parents,
This week's letter is Zz. The new Alphafriend is Zelda Zebra. We have a new high frequency word, have. This one is often confused with a word we introduced earlier, here, since they both start with h and end with e. Continue reviewing those high frequency words posted on our website with your children. Please continue working on Lexia at home as well, as this is a great reading reinforcement program which covers so many concepts, and children love receiving the certificates in class for their accomplishments. I'd like to see most children completing Level 3 by now.
In math, we will be working on numbers to 20, addition, and subtraction for the next three weeks. We are reviewing and reinforcing these concepts as they are truly the foundation for all future math. I get an xtramath report each week, and I can see that many of you are taking advantage of this website. For those children who don't prefer this website, there are so many great iPad apps and other websites to use. Just google "kindergarten math reinforcement" and many things come up! Some favorite iPad/iPhone apps of mine are "Hungry Fish" and "Math Bingo." Keep on practicing!
The kids enjoyed the lessons from our science unit, "Wood & Paper," last week. They had fun going on a wood hunt, learning about 5 different types of wood, and checking how well those woods absorbed water, as well as trying to sink the wood! We will continue science in the upcoming week, when we will be sanding wood and looking at sawdust and also adding water to sawdust, along with several other experiments with wood.
Our sharing this week is "Toy in a Bag." Please send in a toy, hidden in a bag, with three written clues attached. Your child should be prepared to read the clues and have the class guess what is inside the bag. At this point, children should be writing their clues on their own or at least single words to prompt them with what they are going to say.
This Wednesday, your child will bring home a special homework assignment. We will be building leprechaun traps! Get creative and have fun-- traps are due on your child's sharing day the week of the 9th, along with the Blue Bag journal (there will be no other homework this week). There will be more specific directions in the Blue Bag this week, but we do ask two things-- that the traps not contain any unwrapped food items (we've had trouble with ants in the past!) and that the traps are not overly large-- shoebox sized is perfect. We have to store traps from both the a.m. class & the p.m. class, and it gets tricky if we have huge traps. Plus, we're only catching tiny leprechauns :) We will share the traps each day on your child's sharing day, then on Friday, we will set the traps in hopes of catching the little guys! We will come in on Monday the 17th and check the results of our traps, then send the traps home with the children.
Parent-teacher conferences begin Monday the 10th. If you have forgotten your date/time, please e-mail me. We will not have centers during conference time.
