People of the Week
Every week two people from our classroom are our "People of the Week".  They have a special responsibility each day.  This is a fun way for everyone to get to know one another better.  If you are unable to participate, it is not a problem.  The schedule and responsibilities are listed below.  If I have chosen an inconvenient week, please let me know.

Monday:  Share some family photos.  (If you would prefer to email them to me, that is fine. Children may also be prints that we can project using our document camera.)
Tuesday:   Show us a favorite toy.  (It must be non-violent and silent.)  Picture Day.
Wednesday:  Bring in a favorite story.  (A story that can be read in one sitting.  No chapter books please.)
Thursday:  Fill our estimating jar.  (Our estimating jar is a one quart glass jar.  Be creative.  Legos, shells, marshmallows, hair ties, etc.)  Send the items in a bag and we will fill the jar in the classroom.  Your items will be returned to you unless you tell me otherwise.  Please make sure there are fewer than 110 items.  
Friday:  Bring a healthy snack to share with the class.  We have 21 students.  Please try to avoid red dye as a student is allergic.  

May 28 - May 31:  Rayne and Matthew and Neveah (No school Monday.  Photos AND toys on Tuesday)
June 3 - 7:  Ms. Kittell and Izabelle B.

Updates:  I have been approved to resume teaching full time.  Thank you to Stephanie Eddy for her tireless devotion to our students.  She is an amazing teacher!  She will probably be back in our classroom as I have a few professional days coming up.

Also, I would like to let you all know about a new position I will be assuming at our school next year, pending school board approval.  I have applied for, interviewed for and been offered a position as a Reading Specialist.  I will be providing reading interventions for students in grades one and two.  While I will miss kindergarten, I am very excited about this new opportunity.  I won't be in room 406, but I will be in the building and will see your children in the hallways.

Excellent Bee-havior
On Tuesday we had a kindergarten/grade one assembly.  Ms. Scheidt, our dean of students, told us about our next behavior challenge.  If every student can add a hexagon for good behavior to our giant beehive, we will have a big dance! Later Tuesday morning, our friend the bee visited to deliver our yellow hexagons for the beehive.

Progress Reports
A quick kindergarten progress report will be sent home on Monday.  It will be a brief checklist of skills your child should still be practicing at home.  Our end-of-year assessments will begin in another week.  

End of Year Skills
Here is a brief list of skill expectations for the end of kindergarten.

Literacy:
Identify upper and lower case letters by name.
Say the sound of each letter.
Read at least 25 sight words.
Identify the first and last sounds in spoken words.
Sound out CVC words (consonant-vowel-consonant) such as:  big, fat, fox, red, bug
Write down the letters that make the sounds heard in dictated words.
Use first and last sounds in words when writing stories.
Write a simply sentence that tells about a picture.
Form most letters correctly.
Identify the character in one of the stories they have written.
Read books at a text level of B or higher.

Math:
Count to 100 by 1's and 10's
Recognize numbers to 50 and higher
Write numerals to 50 or higher.  (Reversing a digit is okay as long as the place value is correct.  ex.  A student cannot write 31 when they mean 13.  But if a 3 is formed backwards, it is not marked down.)
Addition facts to 5.
Subtraction facts to 5.
Equivalent expressions to 10.  (Understanding that 2+3 equals the same as 4+1)


Sunscreen
If your child needs sunscreen, it is a good idea to apply it before your child leaves for school. That way, if we are able to enjoy a late morning break, your child will be all set.  We have our daily scheduled recess from 2:40 - 3:00.  If you want your child to reapply sunscreen before recess, please send sunscreen in your child's backpack and teach them how to apply it.  We have less than ten minutes to walk back from our unified arts class and be on the playground for recess.  I'm sorry but it is impossible for my to apply sunscreen to all children.  We are not allowing children to bring their sunscreen outdoors because many are sharing it with friends.  As sunscreen is so costly and some children have allergies, we are not allowing the children to share sunscreen.

Farm Animal Homework
Just in case your child forgot which animal s/he is researching...

cat:  RW, MT
sheep:  NMc, AW
horse:  IW
goose:  SP
pig:  PP
dog:  DS-B
chicken:  IB
duck:  GM, GL
worm:  JL, LL
(If I have already received your child's homework, I did not include him/her on this list.)

Measurement
We will be finishing up our math unit on measurement this week.  We measured how many blocks we could fit in our shoes.  We also worked with partners to trace our bodies and measure them.

It took 92 snap blocks to fill one of these boots!
It's much easier to count big numbers when we create
tens and ones.

Our paper was so big that some of us had the
responsibility to work in the hallway.

Shoes
Thank you for your support in sending your children to school in safe footwear.  Some children have been wearing one pair of shoes to school and then want to change into sneakers at recess time.  As I mentioned above, we have a short time period before recess.  We do not have time to help children change their shoes before recess.  The children have been told that they should wear their comfy playground shoes all day.  A few children have not worn socks and then have complained of chafing and blisters by late morning.  Trips to the nurse really disrupt our learning.  Socks should be worn and a spare pair should be in your child's backpack so that we can keep everyone's feet comfortable.  

Assessments
Our kindergarten assessment period will be starting soon.  There will be two days (May 16 and May 23) when Mrs. Eddy will be teaching and I will be working with students on individual reading assessments.  I will also be working on assessments during my teaching days over the next few weeks.  The data from these assessments will be used for our last report card of the year.

People of the Week
Every week two people from our classroom are our "People of the Week".  They have a special responsibility each day.  This is a fun way for everyone to get to know one another better.  If you are unable to participate, it is not a problem.  The schedule and responsibilities are listed below.  If I have chosen an inconvenient week, please let me know.

April 28, 2013

Welcome Back!  I hope everyone had a wonderful vacation.

Flip Flops and Sandals:  Spring is (finally!) here.  No more reminders about snow pants and boots.  Instead, PLEASE make sure your children do NOT wear flips flops or other types of sandals that slide off the foot.  Every year children injure themselves when they trip on a flip flop when playing on the playground equipment.  ALL kindergarten teachers ask that children wear "Teva-style" sandals that have elastics or velcro around the foot or sneakers.  

Dressing in Layers:  The mornings will be chilly this week but the afternoons will be warm.  Our classroom gets plenty of sun so it tends to warm up also.  It is helpful if the children have layers so they can stay comfortable.

Happy Vacation Week!

We had a fabulous "M&M Day" on Friday.  Below are some pictures.

Sorting and graphing M&M's.

Measuring the distance around a circle with M&M's.
We measured how many M&M's fit inside the circle.  We
also measured how many M&M's fit on a line.

When I picked the class up from PE on Friday,
they were "hiding"!   "Surprise!!!!!"

Adding with M&M's.

Staffing Notes:  I will be seeing the doctor next week and am hoping to be cleared to return to teaching full days on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.  Mrs. Eddy will continue to teach on Wednesdays.  Mrs. Lamphere will continue to be our full time classroom assistant.

We had a busy, fun week.  Friday's schedule was full of zig-zags as Mrs. Lamphere was absent and there was not an available substitute until the afternoon.  Many thanks to the parent volunteer who arrived in the late morning and stayed for the rest of the day.  It was also "Ice Cream Day" in the cafeteria so the children got a treat.  We celebrated a classmate's birthday and had two yummy snacks from our people of the week.  Our crazy spring weather made recess indoors.  I think we were all ready for the weekend.  

Here is my family after Saturday's annual skating show in Essex where my
daughter Kathryn teaches and skates.  A student from our kindergarten class was in the show also!

Science:

Our planting unit continues.  On Friday, we recorded the observations we made about our "grass heads".  This week will observe something very interesting about our plastic bag seeds.  Some stayed in the light.  Others were placed in the dark.  Things might not have gone the way we predicted....

We used snap blocks to measure the length of
our arms.  Then we recorded the data in our
measuring books.

Alexia measured her arm with snap blocks.
Then she broke the snap blocks into tens and ones
before recording the information in her book.

Math:
Our measurement unit is in full swing.  In kindergarten, we measure using objects (non-standard units) instead of inches, feet, pounds, etc. (standard units).  We have been concentrating on length but will will measuring weight and circumference this week also.  


Literacy:
If you have any large, office envelopes available, please send them to school.  Used are fine.  We will use these to send home our "book basket books" so that the children have plenty of books to read over vacation.  The children are reading SO well.  Practice is important and fun.  I think you will be amazed at the excellent reading your child is doing.

M & M Day:
We are very close to filling our next bee hive for excellent behavior.  Our celebration will be an "M & M Day".  The first M is for measurement and the second M is for mustaches.  We will spend time measuring in different ways (including with M&M candies) and wearing mustaches!  Children are not required to wear a mustache.  Mustaches can be applied at home.  We will also have washable markers (for drawing on a mustache) and stick-on mustaches available at school.  (For those students who are hesitant, mustaches can also be drawn on the outside of a pointer finger and held up in front of the student's upper lip.)

I am hoping we will have M&M Day on Friday, April 19.  I will let you know for sure.  It should be a fun day!

People of the Week

Lost:
One of our students is missing a blue velour sweatshirt with a pink puma on the front.  If it accidentally went home in the wrong backpack, will you please send it back to school?  Thanks!

Coming Events:  There will be some staffing changes this week.  As I will be screening next year's kindergarten students on Wednesday and Thursday, my "doctor's orders" day off will be on Tuesday.  Mrs. Lamphere has a commitment on Thursday and Friday.  Mrs. Eddy and Mrs. Harding will be in the classroom to cover for me and/or Mrs. Lamphere.  The children's learning will continue uninterrupted.  On Wednesday and Thursday all kindergarten students will enjoy a series of activities based on the book The Rainbow Fish.

April 7, 2013

Wow!  What a germy week.  Students and teachers were all impacted.  I hope everyone got some rest this weekend and is feeling better.  I was in the classroom for four hours this afternoon and had the doors and windows wide open the whole time.  I also washed off all of the tables, keyboards, light switches, etc.  Hopefully it will help.

On Friday we did lots of planting and we are looking forward to seeing our seeds grow.  Lima beans are sprouting in plastic bags in the light.  Pumpkin seeds are sprouting in plastic bags in the dark.  (Do seeds need light?) Grass seeds are planted in plastic eggs and gladiolus bulbs are being forced in baby food jars.  (Thank you for sending in enough jars!)  Mrs. Savery enjoyed watching us plant and document what we did in our science journals.  Keep your fingers crossed that our plants grow.

Boots
Yes, boots are still needed at school.  The playground is drying out slowly, but there is a soft, muddy section and boots still make sense.  If we have any rain this week, the mud will spread.

Recess Change
This week, we made a change at recess time.  Each week three classes will have recess on the 'Kindergarten' playground and three classes will have recess on the 'First Grade' playground.  We will alternate the following week.  This past week, our class spent recess on the first grade playground along with Ms. Murtagh's and Mr. Carroll's classes.  This coming week, we will return to the kindergarten playground.  Our hope is that by spreading out and giving the children more space, there will be fewer recess conflicts.
