Bauer Holiday Program:

We will be taking a bus to the church the morning of the program for a rehearsal.  The program is on Tuesday, November 28 at 7:00pm at Fair Haven Church.  Doors open at 6:30pm.  Students need to be dropped off in their designated area at 6:45pm. 

Gingerbread House Decorating Party:

On Friday, December 8, our Kindergarten class will be having a special event!  Each child will make a small gingerbread house.  I am asking for your child to have an adult with him/her from 2:00-2:50pm.  This can be a mom, dad, grandparent, aunt, uncle, or family friend.  (Please make other arrangements for younger siblings).  Together, the adult and your child will use a milk carton, graham crackers, frosting, and candy to make a gingerbread house.  (I will make a google doc sign up sheet for items needed later in the week.) 

Writing:

We continue to write like scientists!  We have been observing, drawing, labeling, and writing sentences about fall objects.  We have one more week left in this unit.  

My example

Math:

In Math, we wrapped up Unit 2 and took a test.  Look for your child's test to come home in his/her folder on Friday.  The focus of our next unit is teen numbers and seeing them as ten and ones.  

Each day we have also been focusing on a number of the day.  We are working on showing that number in various ways.  Here is a photo of all the ways that we used to show the number 10.

Reading:

In Reading, we have been focusing on looking for the setting in books.  We also continue to spend time reading short booklets with our partners.
