Early dismissal all week!  (1:35)

Sharing:  This week the Winnie the Poohs will share.  We have a new sharing topic so please check to be sure your child brings the correct item.  All information is on this site.

Kindergarten Round Up is March 12 at 12:30 in Room 1. If you know anyone with a student interested in TECS or someone who is going to attend, please have them attend this adults only meeting.
This week we will be having parent conference and you will receive your child's report card and test data.  This is important information as TK and K are the foundation for your child's future school success.  Please take the time to be sure that your child:

-turns in their monthly book log ( I only received 3 book logs on Friday)
-brings the correct share for our monthly sharing topic.  Children share by group (check the calendar on this site)
-practices reading on Lexia 10 minutes per day (minimum)
-reads (is read to) at home everyday
-practices proper printing when completing homework


Manners Matter:
During our Friday morning assembly our principal, Mr. K, mentioned the difficulties we are having with some students.  There are some students who do not follow the school and District rules (Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible).  There are some students that do not complete their classwork, refuse to do work assigned, do not complete projects.  This is a school-wide dilema and many schools are facing similar difficulties.  It is important to establish a school culture that is respectful and that students are held accountable for maintaining high standards.  Additionally, please remember to be respectful during assembly:  sit in our class line, pay attention to the speaker, avoid side-conversations.  DO NOT enter the classroom or wait by the classroom.

I am happy to say that I see very little of this in Room K.  Our students are, for the most part, respectful and hard working.  They are generally kind to each other and helpful.  This is in large part due to the high expectations we maintain and the wonderful support we get from the parents in Room K.  This is very much appreciated!  Please continue this good work as your children matriculate through the grades and encourage other children you know to do so.  It takes a village to raise responsible citizens!


Picture
This week we will meet Ms U.  She is a letter light letter (vowel) and we will learn/review both sounds.  We will continue working in our language arts books. 

Exciting news!  We are going to begin our fairy tale writing by exploring with fairy tale story cards.  The children will have the opportunity to create their own stories together using the cards as prompts.  This is in preparation for our Fairy Tale books.

Dr. Seuss:  Monday is Dr. Seuss' birthday and Read Across America Day.  We will be doing a lot of reading and activities related to Dr. Seuss books..  We love guest readers, so if you would like come in to read a story, please let me know!

Our Schedule:
Monday:  Dr. Seuss' Birthday, Big Buddies
Tuesday:  Planet Bravo
Wednesday:  Let's Find Out! magazine
Thursday:  Second Step, Library
Friday:  Morning Assembly, Music, Homework Review, Sharing, Science Hike

Please remember:  Early dismissal all week!
