Happy New Year! I can't believe it's 2015! Here's a little fun fact. Did you know that 2015 is the year that Marty McFly and Doc travel to in the movie Back to the Future II? I am probably dating myself, but when this movie first came out, 2015 seemed so far away - but here we are!!
The children seemed happy to be back at school and we have returned to a pre-holiday routine. The children started off the week completing class project about their New year's resolutions. There are some pictures below.
Last week's story of focus was The Snowy Day, by Ezra Jack Keats. We worked on story elements and sequencing the events. We also completed a picture and writing project about looking outside on a snowy day. This combine writing with the newest sight word, "it' and using the question mark. In math, we have begun a unit on subtraction.
As we near the end of the second grading period, some kindergarten skills will be assessed. Some math skills assessed will be counting to 100, counting by 10’s, reading and writing numbers to 20. They will also be asked to name the letters and sounds and to read the sight words. (sight word list: can, my, am, are, I, a, see, you, the, like, to, we, are, it, is blue, red, yellow, green, purple, orange, black, brown, white, pink)
Looking forward to warmer temps this week! :)
