Weekly Update 2/23 - Kindergarten A

Hello KA Families,

It was wonderful having everyone back this past week after the snow days and holidays. Ending the week with our big 100^th day celebration was a great way to remind ourselves, and show the school, how much we have learned so far in kindergarten. We are back into our regular routines, and quickly approaching the end of the second trimester!

This week in reading, we will be focusing on the letter Ll, and also reviewing Ee and Bb. We will focus on the sight words “and” and “what”, and review “this” and “do”. In math, we will begin subtraction! As we work on subtraction, we will focus on its relationship with addition. We will also continue to work with our 100 chart and teen numbers. We will continue our assessments for second trimester.

Upcoming Dates:

Tuesday Feb. 26^th– Peace Day. Students may wear SMM Peace shirt, or regular uniform.

Friday March 1^st– First Friday, SVDP food drive and free dress

Wednesday March 6^th– Lent begins, Ash Wednesday Mass

Thursday March 14^th– SMM St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Students wear GREEN!

Friday March 15^th– Teacher In-service Day, no school

Saturday March 16^th– SMM Shenanigans Event (for parents/adults)

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!
