It was another super week in room 4. The kids have been working away on their reading and writing, and I am proud to say everyone scored 100% on a recent math test. Way to go kindergarteners!
Thank you to everyone who came to support our talented kids this week at the talent show. I'd like to send a special congratulations to Hazel H who played her violin in the show and Cadell, who showcased his hip hop moves on stage. Great job, you two!
Here is what we have coming up:
Important Dates:
Friday, 3/20: The Event, 6:30-9:30 pm at the Elks Tower Ballroom on 11th and J. This is a really fun night to socialize with Phoebe Hearst parents and raise money for the school. Thank you to our room moms who organized a Room 4 Lego basket for the silent auction, and to everyone who donated Lego items. The basket will be awesome.
The other kindergarten teachers and I will have a "Pirate Pizza Party" in the silent auction. There will be one top bidder for each teacher, and each winning bidder will get to invite 3 friends to a pirate pizza party in Room 2. It's always a good time, and it raises money for technology at PH!
***It's not too late to buy tickets either online or at the door, so if you have a last-minute opportunity for a night out, come to The Event!***
Tuesday, 3/24: Royal Reader Sacramento Kings game, 7pm
Friday, 3/27: Free dress
Monday, 3/30-Friday, 4/3: SPRING BREAK; NO SCHOOL

Language Arts
This week we will wrap up our work with forming and sharing opinions orally and in writing. The kids' writing is looking FANTASTIC. The majority of kids are now in the habit of beginning their paragraphs with a topic sentence. We are working on concluding sentences. You can help with this at home by reminding you child to start his or her homework writing with a topic sentence. Thank you!
Letter/sound focus: short e, /x/, and /z/
Math
We have begun a uinit on measurement. During this unit we will focus on measuring and comparing length, weight, and capacity.
