March Conferences

Please refer to Room 6 which lists the conference schedule for March. Let me know if there are any changes. Thanks.

Science Day - All about Dinosaurs!

Thanks to the parents who volunteered to talk with the class about dinosaurs! This is always an exciting topic in kindergarten. They know so much about them and can't wait to tell you all that they know. Here are some photos of the day.

March Conferences

This is a reminder to sign up for conferences via a link that I forwarded to you. You will be indicating whether or not you can come in the AM or PM on the three days that conferences are offered. You will not be signing up for a designated time slot for any day. This information has worked out well when putting together a schedule. You can check the blog to find out what day and time you are scheduled. If for some reason you need to change your time after the schedule is completed please contact another parent to make the change. I ask that you then let me know the change so I can plan accordingly.  If you did not receive my email please contact me and I will resend it. Thanks and have a nice February break. Stay warm!

Counting to 100......

We have been working hard counting to 100 but exercising at the same time. The students asked me to put this on my blog so they could exercise at home. Be ready to do a few knee bends!

Johnny the K

Tomorrow Johnny the K will be visiting Memorial. We love to listen to his wonderful music and have done so for many years. Please have your child bring in a special or funny hat to wear to the concert and share in the fun!

What is length?

In math, we are currently talking about non-standard measurement. Some of our vocabulary words are length, shorter, longer, equal and compare. We are learning  how to measure i.e. where do we start to measure and where do we end measuring an object. This week we measured our shoe with pennies and connecting cubes. We then measured a friend's shoe in the same way. We recorded and compared our results.

Time Capsule

After returning from the holiday vacation, we talked about our New Year Resolutions. The ideas shared in class were great. In the meantime, we put together some memories of ourselves in 2013 as a keepsake in a bottle. The bottle shouldn't be opened for many years to come. And of course, 10 years was decided as the revealing moment.......Now wouldn't that be fun!
