Dear Kindergarten Parents,

I hope every family had a blessed Easter Sunday and enjoyed a restful week with family and friends. As we begin May, Mary will be honored. Your child may bring in a flower to add to our religion table.                     On Wednesday, May 4 at 1:45 our school will attend a May Crowning and a Living Rosary. Parents are welcome to attend.

Next Wednesday, our class will be taking a field trip to Underwood Farms. We will be sharing the bus ride with 3rd graders. More information, cost, time, and permission slips coming home this week.

Two birthdays this week: Nicole and McKenzie are turning six on Cinco de Mayo!

Language arts – syllables in spoken words, beginning and ending sounds, strategy for reading: evaluate; predict/infer; comprehension skills: sequence of events and story structure; writing: writing with action words and articles; vocabulary: rhyming words and action words; phonics and decoding: sounds of letters /w/, /y/, short vowel ‘e’ with word families ‘et’ and ‘en’.

Math – Chapter 7 continues as we add vertically, make story problems, and addition facts through 10. Subtraction skills will begin next week.

Science – will consist of our five senses and a review of animals.  Social Studies – As we look at city and county living, we will study our American flag, past and present.

Have a wonderful week!

Mrs. Carol Brown
