Funny Bunnies

That is one funny bunch of bunnies that I am fortunate to work with the past 142 days.  Thank to our families for providing what we needed for a successful egg hunt!  And a big thank you to the parents that came and helped us hunt.  Hanging out with this crew is lively and fun!  Click here for more photos from our egg hunt ! 

The library is having a book fair this week.  Please label all money in an envelope marked for the book fair.  Heads up:  Remember the book fair has a large table full of items that possibly might be cheap in quality but highly attractive to a Kindergarten student.  Please make sure your child is aware of your expectations of purchases at the book fair.  You can come at any time during the day and shop with your child.  Or your child will be allowed to go to the book fair with his/her money and shop alone. 

I hope you added May 18 to your calendar after reading last week's blog entry.  

We continue to work with the letter "e" this week.  We will be reviewing all high frequency words this week.  Look for decoding homework on Monday to help differentiating between words with "e" and words with"i."  Despite what it says on the homework....it does NOT need to be returned to school.  Keep it at home and work on decoding and differentiating between the sounds the letter i and the letter e makes. 

In math, we will finish up with 2D shapes and move into 3D shapes. I'll send home vocabulary words the week of April 13.  We continue to add and subtract daily.

Look for a letter from Coach Grant about volunteers for field day.  The letter will be in Monday's binder.  If you do volunteer, you will stay with our class and help me run the games as we rotate.

Poetry journals did not make it into book bags last Thursday.  Look for them next Friday.  At this point in the school year, our class needed a gentle reminder that we speak to one anther with kindness. This classic poem was perfect to reinforce that we have  Hug O'War behavior and not Tug O'War behavior.  Please remind your child as he/she heads to school that we treat everyone in our class with kind words and gentle hands.  I'll let you know if your child needs a little bit more help in remembering the expectations of Room 114. 

Join us for Tuesday's PTA meeting at 6:00.  Mugshots will be there with hamburger meals for sale to make dinner time easier on you.

Thanks for supporting our school!  Contact me with any questions or concerns!
