Miss Ryan & Mrs. Ford's Kindergarten: Week of May 8th

Here's to a new week Kindergarten!

Happy Monday! We hope you all had a wonderful time at the Mother's Day Luncheon! 🌼 Also that you had a lovely day yesterday feeling loved & appreciated by all! Countdown to graduation is officially 13 days!

We took our Unit 5 ELA test last week! The children did excellent and test folders will be sent home later this week. After our test we moved into our final unit of the year! In ELA last week when reading Kitten's First Full Moon we focused on conclusions and visualizing while reading as a comprehension strategy. We continue substituting, segmenting, and blending sounds to create and change words. We created sentences with our new sight words: do, went, just, down, little, and only. We have officially met our last letter person - can you believe it?! Our letter of the week was 'Qq'! We met Mr. Q with Questions! We completed our Mr. Q puppet. In math we continued through Chapter 11 by comparing height, measuring length, and measuring distance. In Religion we crowned Mary each day and said a decade of the rosary. We also made a Mary in the grotto activity!

Students are now to wear their SPRING uniform (it's going to be 81 degrees)! Students are to meet in our classroom by 6:40 PM, we will begin processing down right at 7:00.

Dismissal - For safety reasons KG & 1st Grade will be dismissed at the front entrance of the school.

Grandparents/ Special Friends Day Information Thursday, May 18th:

Ascension Thursday Mass will begin at 9 AM as usual! After mass the grandparents/ special friends will go to the parish center for a reception until about 10:30 while students have snack/recess. Grandparents will then come over to the school where our student council will direct them to classrooms. After the visit the school will be returning to a normal schedule, however if their grandparents would like to sign them out for the rest of the day please let me know so we can plan accordingly. Thank you!
