Happy April! First grade is quickly approaching. We started our bug unit today. The students are so excited to get to learn all about bugs, their life cycles, what they look like, and where they live. We will be doing lots of fun bug projects for three weeks!
In math, we are still working on those math facts. We have started taking timed tests - students get five minutes to answer 25 math fact questions. Everyone is doing an awesome job. If you are seeing the math fact pages come hope with some answers missing, please work with your child on this at home since it was work not finished.
In reading, we are getting ready for our dibels test. We are reading nonsense words, sounding out words, and racing to see who can say the most letters in a minute. We are also working on fluency - reading sentences and having them make sense! Everyone is doing a super good job of reading!
We are in the middle of making our bug journals in writing. Each day students will be writing a fact about the bug of the day. When we are done with our bug unit - everyone will have an awesome bug journal to bring home and share all the cool bug facts that they learned!
Everyone should have received a blue invitation home today - this is inviting you and your families to the kindergarten music program on April 28th at 6:30. Please let me know if yours didn't make it home!
Keep up the great work at home - if you have any questions, please email me!
