Dear Families,

March 31, 2017

I am sure you have heard it was a busy week here in K-3.

Please ask your child all about it. They should be able to tell you the names of all the chicks.

Thank you so much to Mrs. Palumbo. She brought the chicks in in the early stages, and also supplied everything we needed to enjoy this amazing experience.

I am so grateful and I know the students will always remember this.

The chicks are leaving this heading back home with Ryker this afternoon.

We will miss them…

Thank you to all the guest readers who came in this week. If you would like to come in and read and did not have a chance this week, just let me know and we can work something out.

During the month of March we learned about word families and read many Dr. Seuss books. The students are integrating what they have learned about rhyming and ending sounds into their writing. It is a great month to observe growth in reading and writing. Our letter of the week was “Jj.” Our tongue twister was.”Jeremy and Jazmin jiggle like jelly.” This was our last letter of the alphabet. We will start to write words and sentences for morning work now.

In April we will look for signs of spring and write a mini book during Writer’s Workshop.

We only have 51 days of kindergarten left. It is going to go by fast.

I hope you all have a nice weekend. If you happen to see any signs of spring you can bring them in for our spring table.

Sincerely,

Mrs. MacIntyre
