 News

        It is exciting to see the progress that each student is making in kindergarten!  Your support at home is greatly appreciated!

         In math, we are focusing on subtraction, recognizing and writing numerals 11-20, and our new vocabulary word—minus.  The students are becoming more comfortable figuring out story problems and using number pairs in mathematical equations.

         We are almost finished with our DIBELS testing and a paper will be sent home shortly. I wish I could meet with each of you individually to better explain the results instead of waiting for SEP’s which are coming up beginning the week of March 2^nd.  In the meantime, please feel free to call with any questions or concerns. The KINDERGRADER test will be administered beginning next week.  It will take a couple of weeks to get every student tested. 

         Have a wonderful week and thank you again for all you do!
