Happy Thanksgiving everyone ☺🦃 Eat well | Turkey clip art, Thanksgiving clip art, Turkey drawing

Happy Thanksgiving!  I hope you all had a relaxing holiday and enjoyed your day.  My little family of five had a blast hosting our very first Thanksgiving dinner in our new home with just us and my mother in law.

During this Thanksgiving time, I am truly thankful for all of your sweet kindergarteners and your families!  To be able to start our year together and get in 12 weeks of building a classroom community and learning has been a gift.  I cannot thank you all enough for sharing your kindergartener with me!!

I also wanted to let you know that I appreciate your patience, understanding, and flexibility during these last two weeks.  You have been given A LOT of information.  PLEASE KNOW that if at any point you have a question, wondering, or need, email me and I will help.

Popcorn Words: 

an, can, man, ran. 

Math:  We took our Unit 2 Math test last week.  Your child worked hard on math worksheets that were sent home in their packets.

Writers Workshop:  The kinders worked hard on writing their own small moment stories.  First, they thought about a small moment story that happened to them, picturing it in their minds and then telling it across their fingers.  They also worked hard on the writing that was sent home with them.

Readers Workshop:  We have started to add more powers to our reading superpowers.  This week we added persistence power.  As readers, we have to remember to use all of our powers and most importantly WE CAN’T GIVE UP!  I hope your kinder liked practicing these powers for you and their stuffed animals this week.

 

Google Classroom:  Our online google classroom work will begin on Tuesday, Dec. 1.  Please reach out to me if you have any questions on getting into our google classroom.  A link to our google classroom is on our class blog listed under the Curriculum heading on the right.  You can also find the Daily Online Learning Schedule under our Curriculum heading tab as well.

Daily LIVE meetings:  PLEASE know that if you cannot make these times they will be recorded for you to access at a later time that is convenient for you.  I will be updating our LIVE meeting links with a recorded version once they have taken place.  So, if you miss a LIVE time just go into our google classroom and click on the link you missed.  It will be updated with a recorded meeting for you to view.  It is my understanding that if you cannot attend a LIVE meeting, you will need to call (616-797-9797) your student into the office as you would with an in-person absent day.   You can also email our attendance secretary, Mindy Jeltema at mjeltem@hpseagle.net.  Attendance will only be taken during our morning meeting and afternoon meeting times.
