Dear Kindergarten Families,

During the month of May, we honor Mary.  Your child may bring in a flower any day this month. This month will learn and pray Hail Mary and Our Father. Celebrating with habits of prayer are best learned praying together and joining in celebration of Mass. As we read our religion text we discover the meaning of gifts and how to thank God.

During our daily motor skills we are practicing for the Jogathon event on Friday. If you are designing a poster for your child, please bring it in by Thursday to be laminated. A selection of used books will be on sale for your children to purchase. Cost is minimal.

Carlos will be celebrating his birthday next week!

ELA-  Identify words, pictures, and form initial consonant Yy;  building and blending consonant sounds with short vowel /e/ to read words. High frequency word ‘she’ as we work with simple sentences. Our reading strategy is to predict/infer; and comprehension focus is story structure-characters/setting.

EM- counting and more counting  – using coins  (pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters)  and by ones, twos, fives, and tens.

Science – continues with natural resources -water

Heath – food choices and exercise

Looking ahead – – we have an out reach program next Thursday from the RAYS program called Music over Manhattan. Cost $8.00 envelopes coming home this week.

God Bless your family

Mrs. Carol Brown
