This coming week October 26-30 is going to be a short week due to Parent/Teacher Conferences. Reminder notices regarding your date/time were sent home Friday in your child's OWL folder. If you did not receive it, feel free to contact amberlee@sonshinechristian.org or marcepalmer@sonshine. We would be happy to help you with your date and time. Due to conferences there will be NO SCHOOL Thursday, Oct.29 and Friday, Oct.30.
Fun Fest this past Saturday was AMAZING thanks to everyone who came and helped!! The kids had a lot of fun and "WOW" there were so many Sonshine families represented. I'm already looking forward to attending next year (and so are my boys!)
Last Week At A Glance
Math- We began learning about Ordinal Numbers 1-10. We read several books and played some games to help learn the concept of 1st, 2nd, etc. in addition to our Math Lesson. This concept can sometimes be challenging for Kindergarten-aged children. A few children asked me if we were learning numbers in another language! (too cute).
Reading- We focused on the Letter Mm last week. Ask your child what the letter Mm says. They will hopefully rub their tummy and say "mmmm" as in something yummy. We are continuing to practice our sight words, do small reading groups, and also working with basic letters sounds and letter writing practice with white boards.
Science- We continued our study of pumpkins, which has been a huge hit! Friday we cut open a pumpkin and the students stood around with bated breath as the huge gourd was opened. They each had a chance to put their fingers in the "gooey" insides and remove some seeds. In pairs, they counted pumpkin seeds in groups of 10. We discovered we had 320 pumpkin seeds in our pumpkin. The life Cycle of a Pumpkin was also learned, complete with a cut and paste activity for each student.
Reminder:
Remember gifts for Operation Shoe Box. Our classroom will be buying small toys to contribute. We have a red box located inside our class. :) This project ends Nov. 17th.
Thanks for all you do Parents,
Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Lee
