Rich's Rascals

Wedding Bells Are Ringing for Letter People Q and U!!!

Mixing academics with fun etiquette lessons....We learned that letter "Qq" does not have a sound alone. Letter "Uu" needs to follow "Qq" to produce the sound /KWUH/. The Q, U Wedding event was twofold: to always remember letter sound /KWUH/ while creating memories that will last forever.

Look Who's WHO at the Service For the Joining Together of Q and U!

Happy Spring, Rascal Families!

Have you heard the news? We will start Unit 8 in the Imagine It Reading Series on Monday. The theme is Ready, Set, Grow! As you know, I have requested a baby picture of your favorite kinder for our class bulletin board, “Ready, Set, Groooooooooooow”. I know I will adore the baby pictures I receive. Hurry and send your child’s baby picture in today.

Guess Who????

At this time of the year, Kindergartners are perfect models for the unit theme; Ready, Set, Grow! We are proud to inform you that we have been introduced to all the letter names; and consonants and short vowel sounds for each letter of the alphabet. Long vowel sounds are next in the plans. The sound of long vowel A (as in cake), along with sight words: said, that will be the focus next week. Wow, we are ready, set and have certainly grown since 2012 days!

It is that time of year…your child’s report card is going home on Wednesday, March 27^th. For the very first time in Kindergarten History kinders will be graded in the academic area. WHOHOO! All children have improved since the beginning days of school. A celebration is in order. Root! Root! Root for Rich’s Rascals!!!

There is no better time than now to sit with your child and discuss the report card in detail. Praise your child for progress and set goals for areas of improvement. Be specific and set the standard! As you know, children live up to our expectations. A label will be sealed to the report card envelope for students and parents to sign. Make a BIG deal out of the student signature and your child will feel very important. Also, look for the comment paper enclosed for parents to write a comment. I welcome your feedback. Together, we can make a difference! Calling all signed envelopes and comments to school by Friday, March 29th. Keep the report card home for your files.

Due to a business event I have planned with my husband, I will be out of school Thursday and Friday. Mrs. Jackie Wood, a retired 3^rd grade teacher will be our substitute.

Praise Your Kinder!!!
