The Rewards of Working Hard

We hope our class is learning each week that hard work is rewarded.  When students try their best in class and practice letters and sight words at home, the rewards are great results on their quizzes and the feeling of accomplishment.  As students practice reading, the rewards are a growing excitement and confidence in reading.  When students were motivated to bring in Fall Fest donations the results are many different rewards and opportunities.  This week our top earner will have a fun lunch and afternoon bowling.  Our class will enjoy their own ice cream party and free dress on Wednesday and we all love having a casual last day Spirit wear day every week!  Hard work does pay off!

This week in Kindergarten we will learn the sight words: they, my and study letters Vv, Yy and Kk.  Students will begin learning about opinions; how to state their own opinion and respect the opinions of others.

We will be taking surveys in math to generate data.  Then we'll organize our data on various types of graphs.  Students will learn how graphs enable people to compare and understand a lot of data at once.

In science we will study how the sun warms the earth.  Students will choose different materials to test in and predict outcomes.

The music for the Christmas program is coming right along.  We'll also be analyzing classical music in our listening journals and practicing some songs for our Veteran's Day chapel.

In art this week we will create beautiful cities at night. 

The days are getting shorter, but our ability to learn is lengthening...this class is doing great!
