March 6, 2015 Newsletter

Dear Parents,

As I'm sure you have observed from the paint some of your children have worn home, we are still very much involved with our fine arts unit!  The children have finished painting portraits and self-portraits and will soon be painting their versions of impressionistic paintings.  They have also been experimenting with various forms of modern art and expressing feelings and ideas through different colors.  Our Kindergarten Museum is set for Wednesday, April 1st.

The children are completing their All I Am books, which they will share with the class before they take them home next week.  They continue to write in their journals and illustrate poems in their poetry books.

We have started a new topic in math and have been working on decomposing teen numbers.  Please continue to work with your child on their addition fluency facts.  I will be testing them during the next couple of weeks to see if they can say each one in less than three seconds.

Have a nice weekend!   Don’t forget to change your clocks before you go to bed Saturday night!

Don’t forget the Francis Wyman Carnival is next Saturday, the 14th! They have some great raffle prizes and some fun things to do! If you are able to volunteer in any way, that would be great!

Also, please check to see if any of the class books we have been circulating are still at your house.  These are the books with a class list on the back and they should be returned to school the day after they are brought home so other students can bring them home too!
