March is an exciting month in Kindergarten. We are starting our Bare Books for the Author's Fair. Each student will be writing a book about themselves to be ready to share with parents on May 1st at our school Author's Fair. More info. will come about that as we get closer. Your Kindergarten students are amazing writers and we can't wait to show off their books!
We also have Dr. Seuss' birthday on March 2nd. Dr. Seuss books are loved here at Manila! Mrs. Webster, our librarian, introduced our classes to the website www.seussville.com. It is a great website that Kindergarten students can do themselves. Our classes couldn't get enough of the activities Mrs. Webster was showing them. Try it out at home!
Themes for this month are Weather, St. Patrick's Day, Spring and Insects.
Reading goals are retelling the Characters, Setting, and Problem and Resolution in stories.
Writing goals are using our good handwriting, using capitals, spaces and punctuation while writing our Bare Book stories.
Math goals are identifying coins, learning the break numbers in parts (ex: 5 is 2 and 3, 1 and 4, 5 and 0) and starting on Addition.
Thank you for all the parent help in our classes! Thank you also to all the parents helping us put together our Bare Books! We couldn't do it without you!
