Week of 3/7

I have enjoyed meeting with half of you already for parent-teacher conferences, and I am looking forward to meeting with the rest of you 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. If you need to confirm your time next week, click here. Remember that the 1:15 dismissal time will continue through Friday the 11th. Also, we have placed a cone in the gate where the students normally enter & exit, so you can access campus through that gate now for conferences.

There will continue to be no centers this week due to parent-teacher conferences. We do have an Art Vista lesson this Friday the 10th, and I would like a couple of volunteers to help with Strawbees in the Makerspace on Wednesday from 9:45 to 10:30. Let me know if you are available to help on Wednesday.

Language Arts
Our sight word this week is they. We will be working on s-blend words, such as: small, ask, spot, step.

Math
We continue with to review in math before introducing subtraction next week.

STEAM
