December Update!


December Update!
The Kindergarteners have been working very hard! We have been reviewing many math concepts. We have begun to solve simple addition and story problems.  I will be introducing simple subtraction soon! In Science, we have been learning about Earth. The kids have had a chance to interact with real fossils and they LOVED it! We have talked about what the Earth is made up of and how  we can  care for our Earth. We continue to work on letters, letter sounds, letter formation, sight words, rhyming and blending sounds every day. They kids love reading simple texts. I’ll be sending some of our old mini books home very soon. 
I hope your child has told you about our “Elf on the Shelf.” It really brings out the kids imagination! The children names our elf Lollie Pop.Every morning the elf is found doing another silly thing in our class. The elf has been found fishing, reading and writing us messages. The children have been writing about the elf. Our writing is coming a long way! Keep reading and writing at home!
Report cards go home this Monday, December 10th.
Please check out the pictures below to learn more about what we have been up to!
