Thursday, May 6th, 2004 Dear Kindergarten Families, Our literacy centers this week have consisted of the following tasks. At the language center students completed the _an word family book, chose a recently studied word family word and used it to write a sentence and completed the cl blend word wheel. At the writing center students completed the journal prompt if I was a giant I would . . . and started writing a story. At the math center we practiced our addition and subtraction equations with sticks as well as built towers with blocks and measured the height and length. Our fourth center involved making a special Mother’s Day gift for you wonderful moms. On Friday, Mrs. Morley (Hunter’s mom) is coming in to do a couple science experiments with us. Our safety week has gone well. We learned about personal safety on Monday, The coast guard visited on Tuesday and talked about boat safety, Wednesday was all about fitness and nutrition, today officer Fitch came to talk to us about bike safety and two students in our class won a brand new bike helmet! Tomorrow the Fire department is coming to talk to us about fire safety. We learned many important ways to stay safe and be healthy. |
