Week of January 20th

Dear Kinder-Parent,
Today is a very special day! Not only will we be celebrating the inauguration at mass, but students will be able to watch clips in class as well. I am looking forward to discussing this historical event with your children.
Rather than a homework packet, this week students will have a project. I have sent a folded strip of construction paper. Students are to write numbers 1-4 in the space provided in each box ( 1 number per box). They must glue on any household items to represent that number in each box. For example, in the 3 box, they may glue 3 bottle caps. Students may use any objects that will adhere with ease (i.e. macaroni shells, foam pieces, etc.) This project is due Friday. Also, encourage your child to rehearse his/her line everyday for our M.L.K presentation on January 30th.
We will be learning about words that have the short I sound (pig, kid, pin, etc.) Our spelling words this week are pig, big, pan and tin. Our new popcorn words are “up” and “a.” Your child must practice writing spelling words at home. We are also beginning a very exciting unit about penguins and the Artic! As we continue learning about community, we are going to have a coach deliver a presentation on Thursday.
Show and Tell presenters on Friday are Eki, Chloe Dylan and Kaila.
Have a wonderful week!

Love,
Mrs. McGee
