Here is what we have coming up at Phoebe Hearst and in Room 4:
Important Dates
Friday, 4/17: Room 4 to work in the school garden, 8:45-9:30 am. We would love to have 4-5 parent helpers for this, so if you're interested please let me know.
Science Night; more info to follow.
Spirit free dress day: Twin Day
Saturday, 5/16: PH art walk at PH. This is a fun day to come to school and check out the art the kids have been working on all year. There are usually crafts and activities as well as snacks for sale.
Wednesday, 5/27: Open House. This will be in the evening. It's a fun night for your family to come see all of the kindergarten work on display in Room 4.
Thursday, 6/4: Kinder play day on the baseball fields; 9-12:30. Save the date!! This is a really fun day we started last year with Rooms 2 and 3. We have lots of stations set up around the fields for kids to play, do artwork, etc. All families are invited, and at the end of the day we have a big picnic lunch. We need lots of parent help with this! Be on the lookout for emails as the day gets closer.
Language Arts
We have started to work on blending longer words with more syllables and long vowel spellings. The kids are doing a fantastic job with this. Please remember to have them read to you every day in addition to the time you spend reading to them.
Letter/sound focus: /k/ spelled k, /kw/ spelled qu_, and /y/.
For writing this week we will review informational writing.
Math
This week the kids took their chapter 12 test on measurement and did a super job. We have begun chapter 13 on sorting, classifying, counting, and categorizing data.
Thanks for reading, everyone! Please let me know if you have questions or concerns.
