Week of January 14th

Welcome to another wonderful week of kindergarten!  Our field trip to Sabino Canyon is coming up on Tuesday, January 22^nd!  I am sending home permission slips today, please send them back in ASAP.  The field trip is FREE, and afterwards we will go to Ft. Lowell Park and have a picnic and some playtime.  If you would like to chaperone, I will sign up the first 4 parents who come and talk to me.  There is more info attached to the permission form!

The 100^th Day of School is coming up on Wednesday, January 16^th and will be a very fun day full of lots of activities based on the number 100.  Your student may wear pajamas to school that day!  They may bring a robe and slippers as well, but please leave the pillows and stuffed animals tucked into bed that morning.  

The Friday Dress rules will change starting next Tuesday, January 22^nd.  There will be random uniform checks throughout the week and if your student is in dress code they will be able to wear jeans on Friday.  If your student is not in dress code during this random check they will be given a slip of paper that says they did not earn Friday Dress that week.  We will keep a list on the board as well if you have any questions!

This week homework will go home and Monday and it is due Friday.  We will be learning the new letter, Z.  Our new science unit is continuing and is all about our biome, the desert!  We will be learning all about this habitat as we prepare for our field trip to Sabino Canyon.  This week we are continuing our Dinosaur unit!  This is a student favorite and I invite you to bring in any dinosaur books so that we can read them to the class. We have had some very good books brought in and I know there are so many that we have not had a chance to read as of yet, so keep them coming!  J

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. We're going to have a great week!
