Dear Families,
It was a short busy week but it was WONDERFUL to meet with all of you to share about your child!
Field Trip: Thank you! We are excited to go to Jacob's Heart on Friday, November 16th to help serve our community in a very meaningful way. We will leave around 8:30.
Star of the Week: Please look at the schedule, right hand side of this post, to see when it is your child's turn to be Star. If the week I have chosen doesn't work for you, please let me know and we can change it. There is a lot of flexibility with this program so feel free to change the activities to best suit your family. Have fun and we can't wait to learn more about all our Stars!
Language Arts: We will enjoy a story about a hermit carb that examines a variety of seashells before it finds just the right one to call home. The strategy focus is questioning as well as comparing and contrasting.
Grammar: We will focus on sentences that are filled with strong emotions. These are sentences that would end in an exclamation mark.
Writer's Workshop: We are working in our opinion piece. We gathered ideas for our opinion writing, used a graphic organizer to help us organize our thoughts and now are writing our draft! We love sharing our opinions!
Word Wall Words: Your children will learn new word wall words each week and together we will put them on our Word Wall. Listed below are the word wall words from Kindergarten. It is my hope that you will make a word wall at home or make flashcards to practice daily with your child. This will help your child with reading, writing, and spelling.
New Word Wall Words: girl every each

Phonograms: These are letters that when put together make one or more sounds. We will learn several phonograms each week to help us read, write and spell. Below are the phonograms we learned this week.
sh as in ship, shop ck as in kick th as in that, this, three
ee as in three, bee, see er as in her ear as in early
ir as in first ur as in nurse
ch as in chip
Math: We will continue to add and subtract within 20, count to 120 starting at any number and this month we will focus on partitioning circles and rectangles into two and four equal parts using the words whole, halves, fourths and quarters to describe them. Also this entire month we will focus on learning to tell time to the hour and half hour using an analog clock. Now would be a GREAT time to get an analog clock for your child to tell time to the hour and half hour with you at home.
