Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today:

We did Fundations. This is our last day for our capital letters. We wrote Y and Z in our Fundations notebook. We did big cards and little cards and vowel chart. We did tapping. (Sophia)

We did snack. We read Skeletons and Muscles. (Logan)

We did math. We had word problems. Some people got to act them out. We had to show our thinking. We had a little extra time to play Count Around the Circle. Whoever got to a group of 10 had to sit down. As we play our group gets smaller. (Ginger)

We did  P.E. In P.E. we did the bean bags. We threw the bean bags in the basket. We had lots of stations. (Lyrik)

We did writing. We made a list of things we can do that we could write about for our How To books. We made a list of things on the SmartBoard. (Andrew)

We did Daily 5. (James)

We did our poem. It was called My Body. There were pictures of your hand with skin and pictures without skin. It’s called a skeleton without your skin. (Evan)

For project we drew on a piece of paper with our body. We had to color our body with realistic colors. (Layla)

We did the Zero the Hero Stomp! (Kate)

Reminder: Library Day is tomorrow, so please remind your child to bring the library book back!

Yesterday we watched another Class Dojo video! We are now on Episode 3. The kids absolutely love these videos. They have done a great job with watching the video and then talking about it after. This video talked more about trying hard even if something is hard, which is very important to understand as a Kindergartner. Here is the link:


It would be great if you could watch this at home with your child this week! After watching this video, you could discuss the following questions:
1.                   Name a time you were afraid to ask for help. Why were you afraid? (Both parent and student should pick a moment to share)
2.                   How can you improve the phrase "I can't do this?”
3.                   Think of a time where you just didn't get “it.” What could you do in that situation?



Thanks for everything you do! Have a wonderful Tuesday evening and try to stay dry! J
