October 26-30
We have an extremely busy week in kindergarten this week. Some major events/activities we have this week are:
- Community Helper family project sharing (Tuesday-Friday) *If your child is scheduled to present their October family project on Monday it will be changed to Tuesday because I will not be in class tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.
- ClassDojo Kindergarten monthly prize: On Wednesday, all students that have received their 40 point certificate for the month of October will be participating in the popcorn and pajama day. Those students are allowed to wear pajamas to school on Wednesday and students must bring their own popcorn to eat during a short movie at the end of the day.
- Field Trip to the Farm- Thursday is our field trip to the farm. Please dress warm as the high is only low 50s. Chaperones should be at school by 9am. We will leave shortly after that. Chaperones, do not plan to take your child home when we return around 1:30-2. You may pick them up at dismissal like normal.
- Halloween party- On Friday we will have a Halloween party in the afternoon. Students may wear costumes but NO MASKS ARE ALLOWED. Do not send candy/food with your child to pass out. This is not allowed. Thanks.
Due to all these activities we will be using this week as a review/assessment week for skills covered thus far. We will also be doing some fun Fall and Halloween themed activities and stories.

Reading
We are reading stories about how children around the world get to school. Our reading skill this week will be to identify illustrations and tell how they support the text. We will be discussing author vs. illustrator too. Our comprehension strategies this week are drawing conclusions and making connections.
Math
We will continue to master numbers to ten as we focus on numbers six and seven this week. We will also continue using math vocab such as same, different, color words, and shape words.
Writing
Students will write about what they like to do with their family this week. The students will each publish a page and we will make another classroom book (that is why you aren't seeing their focus writing every week).
Phonics
Letters Ss and Cc is our focus this week. We will learn the sounds and do some sorting of items with their beginning sound. We will also continue to learn about rhymes and start blending sounds to read CVC words.
