SAIG (Social Academic Instructional Group) with

Mrs. Kibblesmith

 Beginning last week and continuing for six weeks, we're thrilled to introduce Lincoln's social worker, Mrs. Kibblesmith, to our classroom. Each week, she will conduct a 30-minute session aimed at reinforcing our school rules and expectations. So far, Mrs. Kibblesmith has been engaging with the children on topics such as Whole Body Listening and Empathy. We are thankful she is able to take this extra time to support our class.

SNACKS!

Gentle reminder: Your child should have a daily nut-free snack. While we've had some donated snacks that have been a great help, our supply is LOW.

Please make sure your child brings a snack each day, and consider involving them in the packing process. If you're able to contribute to our "I Forgot My Snack Drawer," it would be much appreciated! Your support and donations are invaluable. Thank you!

Kindergarten T-Shirts

Each year we design a t-shirt that the students can wear to show they are the Kindergarten class of 2024!! 

Below is a link to this year's shirt.

The cost is $20 and there is an estore set up for you to order your child's shirt.

Math

In math we have been working on addition and subtraction within 10. This includes representing our answers through pictures, number bonds, and number sentences. We will continue with this concept after break and then move on to Module 5 - Numbers to 20.

Latest Read Alouds

Our recent author/illustrator study has focused on Mo Willems. Last week, we explored the charming stories of Elephant & Piggie, while this week, we've been immersed in some of Mo's other captivating tales. After the break, we'll be diving into the world of Pigeon! Throughout our journey through Mo's books, we've been closely observing his clever use of word bubbles, onomatopoeia, and the seamless connection between illustrations and text.

Second Step

This week we finished our Child Protection Unit in Second Step We focused on the many Ways to Stay Safe. Home links went home the last few weeks to keep you updated on our weekly discussions. When we return from break we will continue with our traditional Second Step lessons.
