Dear Families,


We have read a great many versions of the Gingerbread Man (boy, girl, baby, etc.) and are enjoying the similarities and differences in the outcome of the gingerbread being.  Talk about the different characters and settings has also been part of this process. You had a gingerbread project come home this week. Have fun designing him/her and send it back in for display. 

We have been learning so much about Florida and manatees with our Go2Science mission! If you are on Facebook you can check out the Go2Science page to keep up to date with what we have been working on. 

During writing time they are starting to orally tell their stories with a beginning, middle, and ending so we will be able to get our stories on paper! 

In math we are working with teen numbers, formation of numbers, making pictures to match the number written, addition and subtraction practice, counting by 10s, number matches with dominoes, subitizing practice, and reading graphs.  Our routines at calendar time include; counting to the calendar number of the day, charting days of the week, weather observations, tallies, money, patterns, solving addition problems, talking about odd and even numbers, and tracking the number of days we have been in school. 

We are learning about the Woolwich Way! The Woolwich Way is made up of 6 qualities that will help us to be the best we can be! (Courtesy- I can use good manners, Compassion-I can help others, Respect- I can treat others kindly, Honesty-I can tell the truth, Responsibility- I can take care of myself and my stuff, Quality- I can do my best even when things are hard)

Upcoming Events: 

Kindergarten is going to attempt to collect 100 non-perishable food items before February vacation. We are incredibly excited to be able to do this community service project again. If you are able, please consider donating food for this drive. Thank you~

February 20-24 February Vacation

Dear Families,

I want to start this by apologizing for not getting a newsletter out lately. My mom is dealing with some health issues and I am her caretaker, so my life has been a little scattered. I also ended up in the emergency room on Monday, with a scare, but all ended well. I am fine. BUT we are keeping it real here at school and have some wonderful activities and growth these past few weeks! 

We have been consumed by an author study of Jan Brett. Her stories and illustrations are perfect for this time of the year! Books Read: The Mitten, The Hat, The Umbrella, and The Three Snow Bears.
