Friday
Field Trip to the Minnesota History Center
If you did not sign up for hot lunch, your child will need a bag
lunch and drink. If you signed up for
hot lunch your child will be receiving a bag lunch but they will still need a
drink. We would prefer a disposable
lunch bag for easier transport to and from the field trip. Also please label your child’s lunch. Please wear comfy walking shoes, COLLEGE T SHIRTS, and uniform bottoms.

HANDWRITING/WRITING
We are working on thinking like writers and getting our ideas on
paper using pictures and words. We are also labeling, stretching out words, and using our
vowels. This week we are working on turning our writing and ideas into
books and scrolls. We are working on thinking about what we are going to write and
planning it out across all of the pages in our story. Including details and
labeling in our pictures is an important way to tell more about our story.
CORE KNOWLEDGE
Kindergarteners will learn about Kings and Queens, the Royal
Family, and traditional songs and peoms related to Kings and Queens.
