Kindergarten
News
In Reading we will
start a new story titled, On The Move. It is an informational text by author Donna Latham. We will work with the letter sounds /v/
and /z/ and the comprehension skill, main
idea. Watch for your new Family Times newsletter and have your
child practice the Words to Read!
In Math we will continue
Topic 12 Measurement. We will be comparing objects by length, height, capacity,
and weight. Please review daily practice pages!
Yearbook order forms
were sent home last week. The cost
of a yearbook this year is $20.
All orders are due no later than Monday, April 25th. If you would like one, then please send
in your payment and order form to reserve a copy. (There will not be
extras!!)
DIBELS testing for the
end-of-the-year has begun. Please
review letter naming, segmenting, and nonsense words. The time for each is 1 minute!
Friday, April 22nd is Earth Day. Earth day is a day to remember to take
care of our planet by keeping it clean. We will be talking about the environment and discussing the
important rule that tells us to “reduce, reuse, and recycle” and how following
this rule can make a difference.
Perhaps as a family you could plan a special project in your
neighborhood! **Students are asked to save and bring in 1 empty toilet paper roll
for a recycling project we will be doing on Friday, 4/22.
Students in Grades 3-6
will continue taking the PSSA tests during the next 2 weeks. Kindergarten’s schedule will be
switched around. Special classes
will be 9:00-9:45 instead of 2:15-3:00. Please talk to your
child about being quiet while in the hallways during testing days!! **THE SCHOOL STORE WILL BE CLOSED
DURING THE WEEKS OF APRIL 11 and APRIL 18!
Kindergarten
Graduation will be held on Tuesday, May 24th at 6:00 pm in the NS
High School Auditorium.
Specific details about parking, seating, etc. will be sent home closer
to the date. Due to limited
seating, each Kindergarten student will be limited to 5 tickets. **If a small child (non-school age) is
going to sit on an adult’s lap, they will not
need a ticket. **Your Kindergarten child is not part of the
count. No one will be
admitted to Graduation without a ticket. Graduation tickets will be sent home Friday, May 20th. **If
tickets are misplaced, we will not be able to replace them.
FYI: Any student who participated in the
“I’m a Reader” challenge/contract during Newspaper in Education week had
his/her name published in the Wednesday, April 13th edition of the
Republican Herald newspaper. J
**Monday, April 18th
is Day 5 –Music class. Students will need sneakers and gym
attire on Friday, April 22nd.
