April Update

4/11/2013

0 Comments

 
As you all know, we will be going on a field trip in the morning to Hogle Zoo on April 16th.  Please have your child to school no later than 8:35 AM that day.  We will be leaving right after taking roll.  You will need to provide a ride home for your child.  Kindergarten will be dismissed at 11:35 AM.  There will be no bus service at that time.  There will be no afternoon kindergarten that day.

All parents are invited to come to the zoo with us.  I ask that if you would like to attend, please meet at the school that morning.  You will need to follow us up to the zoo and pay for your own entrance into the park.  The cost for an adult is $9.75.  The more parents we have come the better.  I look forward to seeing you.

We will be using the south entrance into the zoo.  I have provided a map below.  This is not the main entrance. 

If your child has not returned his/her permission slip by April 16th, he/she will not be able to go to the zoo.  If you need another copy you may print one off below.

Report cards will be coming home today.  Please sign the envelope and have your child bring the envelope only back to school.  You may keep the report card for your records.

Pre-Srping Break Update

We are wrapping up another quarter.  Wow how time flies!  Remember there will be no school this Friday, March 29th.  This day will be a teacher work day for finishing up grades and preparing report cards.  Thursday, March 28th will be a short day.  Report cards will be coming home after spring break.  

Last year, I had the kids dye eggs and put together a small Basket with treats to take home. If any of you would like to send a bag of treats (the size that will fit into a plastic egg) along with some plastic eggs, that would be appreciated.  Please send them no later than Thursday, March 28th.  It should make it a fun end to the week.  School will resume April 8th.  Have a fantastic break!

Zoo Field Trip

I wanted to give you all a "heads up" on our zoo field trip that is coming up next month.  All of the kindergarten students will be going to Hogle Zoo on Tuesday, April 16th at 8:30 A.M.  I wanted to notify you early so that you can make arrangements for your child if needed because there will be no afternoon kindergarten that day.  The children will need to be picked up from school at 11:35 A.M.

I will let you know in a week or so how many volunteers I will need.  It should be a great experience for the children.

March Updaate

I wanted to inform you of our goal that we are working on for March.  This month the goal will be for each student to read a short list of CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words (dog, rag, sun, etc.).  To practice this skill, have your child continue to read the weekly book and key words list.  This is great practice.  For additional help, starfall.com has some wonderful, on-line books that can reinforce this skill.  Also, our class has been watching the Alphablocks (found on youtube).  Check the Youtube tab on this website for an example.  The kids love these short videos!  I think they are great.  Keep up the great work.  I have been blown away by how great these kids have been reading!

Also, I sent home the final survey for my Master's project.  If you did not see this, I will be sending it home again tomorrow, so look for the bright yellow paper.  Also, if I could get a couple more parents to attend a short meeting this Thursday after school, I would love the feedback about this website.  Have a fantastic week!

My Master's project is in full swing.  Thank you to all those who filled out the yellow survey!  The information is very valuable in making this website a useful tool for you.  Over the next couple of weeks, I will be working on implementing your suggestions into the website.  I am especially excited about the Go Math link.  I will let you know more about how to access it in a couple of weeks, but it has some great games that can be played on-line that will reinforce math concepts taught in class.  I think the kids will love it!

Also, check out the Youtube page.  I uploaded some of the videos that we have been watching in class and the kids love them.  Subtraction Pirate is the class favorite!

We have just wrapped up another quarter.  I can't believe that we are half way through the school year.  It is going by so fast!  Keep an eye out for report cards this week.  Please keep the report card for your records and sign and return the manila envelope.
