Weekly Kindergarten News Religion (K-1): This week we finished up our "God Made Me!" packets. We continued to talk about the wonderful gifts we each are from God. We also learned about All Saints Day and the true story of Halloween and that it is not a day of costumes and candy, rather, it is a day to remember all those who have died. Religion (K-2): "The Golden Rule" was the theme of the week. We talked about what the golden rule is and how we need to apply it to our own lives. "Do to others as you would have them do to you". We also learned about All Saints Day and the true story of Halloween and that it is not a day of costumes and candy, rather, it is a day to remember all those who have died. Math: We have been finishing up Chapter 3 this week. We spent a few days on learning ordinal numbers (first, second, third, fourth, and fifth). We are now practicing using these words in our everyday vocabulary (dates, order of students in line, directions, etc.). K-1 completed the test this week and will be moving on to Chapter 4 this upcoming week. Reading (K-1):We began Unit 2 this week. The theme of this unit is friends. Some of the new things we worked on this week were reading and recognizing the word 'like'. We also practiced the sound the letter 's' makes. We can now add the word 'Sam' to our sight word list from combining /s/ with /am/. Our current sight words are as follows: I, can, we, the, am, Sam, like. Reading (K-2): We began this week with a story about activities that friends do together. We talked about that although some friends may like to do the same things, other friends may not. With the help of our books, we learned the sight word 'a' and the sound that /p/ makes. Our current sight words are as follows: I, can, we, the, am, Sam, like, a. There is NO SCHOOL Tuesday, November 3rd due to a teacher's professional development day. **Reminder - The November reading charts are due no later than November 30th. Please complete the chart and return it to school ASAP. Upon completion, your child will receive a prize for their great reading.**
