Week of February 2nd

Dear Kinder-Parents,
Happy Groundhog Day! Today, the students will review their predictions made last Friday to see if Spring will arrive early. We will also be exploring shadows and learning what creates them, as well as matching the shadow with the correct object. Today we will be discussing animals that burrow in honor of Groundhog Day!
I am so proud of the incredible job Kindergarten did with the Martin Luther King Jr. presentation on Friday. They are wonderful performers and their hard work and dedication brought tears to my eyes!
February is an incredible month for learning. In February we celebrate National Dental Health Month, Valentines Day, Presidents Day, the 100th Day of School, and so much more! This week, we kick of February with the letter C and beginning to explore graphs and fractions. Our new popcorn words are “get” and “where.” On Wednesday, we will take a math test that concludes our chapter on number concepts.
We are also continuing our unit on community. This week, we will meet a police officer and a doctor! Our Show and Tell presenters on Friday will be Kailei, Giovanni, Ravan and Madison.
Have a wonderful week!

Love,
Mrs. McGee
