HIP HIP HORRAY, WE HAD A BLAST ON 100 DAY!

We had a lot fun celebrating!  Here are some of the activities that we did to celebrate the number 100!

We did 100 exercises

We read a funny poem with 100 words

We made 100 Days Smarter crowns 

& 

shared our 100 Day Collections with our 3 clues

We took pictures of ourselves to see what we will look like when we are 100 years old

We counted to 100 by 1’s & 10’s

We counted by 1’s & 10’s while stringing cereal to make a necklace

We synergized in groups to create a 100 day snack.  

Ask your child what they did in their group.

PIZZA HUT COUPONS

I sent Pizza Hut certificates home in the blue folder this week again for January Reading minutes.  Be sure to use them in 30 days or less.  There is no money needed to redeem the coupon.  The kids are very excited about going to Pizza Hut.  Thanks for reading with your child!  Remember, reading in Kindergarten is: doing my homework, someone reading to me, the student reading and finding “snap words”, practicing letters and snap words, name writing, reading the pictures in books and retelling story to someone or reading on RAZ Kids.

VALENTINE CARD EXCHANGE

We will be passing out Valentine cards 
Tuesday, February 14th

• Students may bring in their Valentine cards any day this week.  Please do not send candy in the cards.  The cards may have stickers, pencils, etc. if you desire.  

• We do not address the cards to a specific person.  It takes too long to pass them out, but we are working on the snap word “from”.  I ask that they write from _______ (their name) on each card so they can just drop one of their cards into everyone’s bag.  

• We have 22 students & 2 teachers in our Kindergarten class.  

• We will be making this Heart Buddy sacks in class so they do not need to bring in a box for their Valentines. This activity will be centered on reviewing and reinforcing the Spanish concepts of body parts vocabulary.  

Our fabulous room moms are planning activities for the children that day that center on math and friendship.  Thank you to these wonderful moms in advance!

             
   

LOVE YOUR LIBRARY CONTEST

Our Eagle Books & I Like Books are finished and ready to submit to the Love Your Library Contest this week!!!  I am so proud of the hard work the students have put into their books and can’t wait for you to see them! 

The sign up for conferences is up in the lobby.  I noticed that 9 of you have already signed up for a time ~ thank you.  If you have not signed up just remember that I can also conference with you before or after school any day next week except Wednesday.  But, if you would like to come on the 16th please call the office or stop by to pick a time. Your child should attend the conference, too.  He/she will be sharing their Leadership Notebook with you.  We will also review the DIBELS data.
