SPORTS DAY FRIDAY, MAY 26 Next Friday, Nursery to 8th grade will participate in a fun sports morning.

Kindergarten students need to wear a YELLOW
t - shirt and comfortable PE clothes. Do not forget to use sunblock, a cap, repellent and bring a water bottle.

This week we will be reviewing 4th quarter content and beginning our 4th quarter evaluations.

We will be introducing Fairy Tales this week. Here are some of the fairy tales we will be reading in class are:

We finished with the study of all the

letters of the alphabet. We are going

to review all the letter sounds.

The students will be writing Sight

Word sentences that will be dictated to them.

The five sight words for this week are: one, two, three, four,

five.

Please practice these words at home with your child every day.

In Phonemic Awareness, we will be continuing with digraphs. The digraphs that we will be reviewing this week is are: Th,Sh,Wh,Ch.

In language, a digraph is two letters or characters that make a single sound when pronounced, also known as a phoneme. The sound made by the digraph is usually noticeably different than the pronunciations of the individual letters would be.

In Math we continue working with place value. The children will read

numbers and identify the place value of each digit up to one hundred. We will also

be working on addition and subtraction story problems.

In Science, we will continue learning about the planets. Our focus will be on the planet Uranus. This unit has been of a lot of interest to the children. They love learning facts about each of the planets. Ask them questions and you will be surprised by all the things they know of each one of them.
