Welcome to Kindergarten!

I am excited to have the opportunity to get to know so many great families over the 2010-2011 school year. Kindergarten is the foundation to your child's educational future and it is essential that he/she has a great experience to get him/her started out on the right foot. Blogging is a new experience for me, but I think I am really going to enjoy it. My goal is to update my blog once a week as it is one of many ways I strive to keep you informed of classroom happenings. Enjoy!

  • Monday- K skills
  • Tuesday- Drops in the Bucket #4

March...Lion or Lamb???

March has been surprising so far with such nice weather. I hear next week we will be getting colder temperatures, rain, and possibility of light snow. Make sure your child is dressed for the weather. A few times this year kids have had to sit in the office at recess for not being dressed for the cold weather.

This week we have been learning about plants and what plants need to survive. Some items the class and I have decided that plants need to survive are sun, air, water and dirt. I have been reading them books that have to do with the lifecycle of plants as well. To go along with plants, we will also be learning about weather this month.

We just took our math test on time and money. Next week we will start learning the basics of addition and subtraction. This chapter should be easy for the kids because they have already proven to me they know how to do addition.

Don't forget that class picture day and school carnival are both coming up on March 19th. I have had one donation to our "Garden Basket" so far.

Hopefully everyone will have a chance to get out in the nice weather tomorrow before it changes to rain on Sunday.
