Kindergarten News
**This week we will be learning about the consonant letter Jj and its sound as in jump and jar. Instead of the usual Show & Tell we are asking that students tell a joke to the class rather than show a Jj item. If you do not know a joke, you could do an internet
search for kids’ jokes and riddles, look for a joke book at the library or local bookstore, or check out the Mini page jokes in the newspaper. Be prepared to laugh your way through the week!
**For Reading we will finish the book Hide Clyde!, and will begin Unit 4 with the story Bunny Day by Rick Walton. It will be about what adventures take place in Bunny's day from breakfast to bedtime. The focus skill of this story is sequence.
**Monday, March 15th will be Day 2 – gym class. Remember gym attire and sneakers. (Boys and girls will need library books for exchange on Day 6—Friday,March 19th.)
