News

         Please remember to keep track of the minutes your child is reading or you are reading to him/her.  The March calendar should have come home with your student in the homework folder last week so you can record the minutes read on that calendar and on the Kite Flight for Sight calendar as well.  Our goal is 15 minutes a night/5 days a week.  Of course even more minutes is better!  THANK YOU!!

         In math, we are discovering how to model, represent and count 20 with objects.  We are also comparing numbers one through twenty. 

         For science our unit is on earth and space.  This week we discovered how rocks break down to smaller rocks, then into pebbles and finally into sand. 

         It is exciting to see the students reading and writing words!  Our focus has been on rhyming words this week.  They are continually getting better at nonsense words as well. 

         Thank you for sharing your awesome kids with me!  They are such a joy!  Have a wonderful week and let me know if you have any questions or concerns!
