In honor of Veteran's Day, school will be closed tomorrow (11/11/11). I hope that you all enjoy the long weekend! Next week will be a full week, and "B" day students will attend on Friday.
This week, we used the short week to complete some fun activities. The students made some adorable scarecrows! They are such creative kindergarteners. We continued to practice identifying the first sound in a word. The students are mastering this skill, and I am so proud of their hard work. In math, we practiced counting backward with a fun poem about squirrels and with the always-fun game "Zero the Hero." Please ask you son/daughter about this game--I think it may be the students' new favorite activity! It's a terrific way to practice counting back from 5 to 0 and loads of fun all at once.
I am almost completely booked for fall conferences...I look forward to seeing many of you on Tuesday evening. Have a terrific holiday weekend!
