102’s Kindergarten News For You!

Reading/Writing:    New words:  be & by, was & saw.  We are getting these mixed up so “double practice” writing these at home!  We are still comparing LONG vowel sounds in words by working on sorting projects AND by trying to remember that “magic e” when we write long vowel words. 

Writing: We are comparing/contrasting these books by Jan Brett: The Mitten & The Hat.   What is the same/different about each story? (see below for review)

Magic ‘e’:  We will conduct magic in our classroom by changing short vowel words to long vowel words by adding a silent letter ‘e’ to their end. For example:  can + e = cane, vin + e = vine, ton + e = tone, etc.  Try a few examples with your child!

Math/Numbers:    The students are going to practice “buying” items at Mrs. Steinman’s “store” next week in order to practice adding money.  We have had fun talking about fractions=parts of a whole. We will keep working on this as well.  Our 100^th day of school is NEXT FRIDAY, January 20^th! Can you believe it! Watch for notes about this! J Yippeeeeee!

Special Topics:  Winter, Snowmen, Polar/Arctic Animals, Martin Luther King, Jr., 100^th Day.  These are most of our topics for January!

Happy New Year & Welcome Back!
