Week 2:
Our second week is finished and next week we will begin to get
into our curriculum.
What are
we learning!
In reading, we will be focusing on
letters A-F, rhyming, and telling the difference between letters and numbers.
Math- in math this week we are focusing on reading,
writing, and counting to 5.
Writing- In writing we are learning that our pictures can
tell a story. Students are beginning to ask how to spell and write letters,
which is always so fun to see!
Bible- next week we will learn about Noah and how he
keeps his promises! We will also be doing a fun rainbow art on Friday to go
with this=)
Social studies- We are finishing up our rules unit and we
will begin to learn about what makes a good friend. All very important things
to learn in kindergarten=)
Side
Notes
*We are also beginning our sight word lists Monday. The
goal is to complete one list every 1-2 weeks. To pass the list students should
be able to read the sight word within 3-5 seconds. Again in the beginning this
may take longer to finish a list and that is okay. Here are a few examples of
how you can practice
-flash cards
-write them on white boards
-find them in books
-make them with play dough
-read our little readers that are sent home, or find some
online (mostly made of sight words)
*If you have not signed your child’s internet permission slip
sent home on Thursday, please do so this weekend. Students get to use our
I-pads to read stories, play reading games (hooked on phonics), and to play
math games. In kindergarten students will not be online unless with an adult.
