Dear Families,

Happy December. We are working hard during this short month and getting ready to be on our nice long vacation!

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: Our stories continue to be fiction stories that help us work with cause and effect.

Grammar:  We will start to learn about contractions and continue to find words with long vowel sounds.

Writer's Workshop: We will celebrate with our friends now that we completed our opinion writing. Enjoy reading it with your child when it comes home.

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:    now        over      old

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. Look for the completed phonogram worksheet in your child's folder.

Math: We are working with subtraction using this skill in word problems as well as reviewing telling time to the hour and half hour.
