                                                                                                      Kindergarten is excited to be ordering Scholastic's "Let's Find Out" weekly learning magazine for our students this year. These magazines include weekly thematic unit issues with emphasis on science and social studies. There will be a rebus reader edition that goes with the unit of study. Our classroom will also get a digital version for our promethean board which will allow us to study the topics as a whole group and have access to sorting/classifying games and videos. The cost per student is $5.50. Please send exact cash in an envelope with your child's name on it or a check written to Scholastic. We may need sponsors for some children.

This week we learned to spell the words red and one with songs. We talked about the characteristics of a circle. We're sharing our "Me Bags" and working on writing two books: "Soy Yo" and "I think I can in Kindergarten". We are doing activities with our names and counting objects to match a given number.

Wake County Schools is encouraging families to provide healthy snack to celebrate birthdays. If you'd like to bring a snack for your child's birthday, you may bring it to the cafeteria at 10:45 to serve during our lunch time. Options may include: fruit, mini cupcake or simple cookie, gogurt or fruit snacks.
