Week of March 31st

           Welcome be another wonderful week of kindergarten!  Next week is AIMS week at school and that can be very tough on our kinders.  To give the students taking the AIMS the best advantage possible we stay in our room and work quietly during the day.  In order to break up our days a bit we will be going on some field trips! On Tuesday, April 8^th, we will be going to Old Pueblo Grille.  On Thursday, April 10^th, we will be going to the Tucson Museum of Art.  And Friday, April 11^th, we will be going on a scavenger hunt at Ft. Lowell Park.  Please sign permission slips and send back ASAP!
         This week we will be learning the letter and sound of X and the sight words they, of, are and that.  In math we will be taking our unit 10 test and working on decomposing numbers from 11-19.  We are still working on the mystery of where Irving is and will be doing some fun science experiments!

       We have 20 students who can count all the way to 100 without skipping any numbers!  Please keep working on counting by 1’s and 10’s to 100.

         SPIN night will be tomorrow night, Tuesday, April 1^st, and should be a fun one!  It will be a whole mystery night and the whole family is invited!  A few different flyers have gone home about SPIN night and if you are interested in attending please RSVP to the office.
       At the end of the year we will have a kindergarten celebration! We put on a concert for all of you parents and then you can take your student for a very special day, a whole day to celebrate becoming a 1^st grader!  We will have the celebration on Friday, May 16^th at 9:00am.  I know it can be hard to get time off, and I wanted to be sure to give you plenty of notice!
