I want to wish Mrs. Rigling all the best as she leaves kindergarten for 5th grade. She will be with Ms. Acomb for the next 8 weeks. Good luck Mrs. Rigling! You have done a wonderful job in Room 201!

Happy Valentine's Day! (a little early)
What a wonderful week to celebrate Valentine's Day! The students have had a great time celebrating this lovely holiday. In class, we have been using the holiday to practice our sequencing skills. We have no school Thursday, Friday, or next Monday. We will return to school on Tuesday, 2-19-13.
In math, we are becoming subtraction super stars! In reading and writing, we are really focusing on the structure of sentences and comprehending the stories we read. We are also working to improve our spelling skills by sounding out words with three letters (with an occasional "challenge" of four or five letters!).

Panda Mania
The students got in the spirit of learning about pandas this week! I have seen panda t-shirts, panda raincoats, panda pants. I love that the students matched their clothes to this week's reading theme!
In math, we are focusing on addition and the kids are doing a good job "showing their work." This can be a tricky topic, so please practice at home, as well.
We continue to focus on the sounds in words (identifying, reading, AND writing). We are also emphasizing the rules of writing a complete sentence.
Next week's reading theme: Little Duck. Will I see some ducky outfits?
