The week of Mar. 27-31.

We are finally blessed with rain!  I can't wait for my grass to green up and my flowers to bloom!
Now, if only the temperature will warm up.  We had spring weather in winter and winter weather in spring!

I noticed some of you were able to get on Skyward over the weekend and check out your child's grade card.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  If you are not able to view it, please call the office and let them know.  Thank you for cheering for your child on their success in Kindergarten, or working with your child on what they need to improve on! YOU make such a difference in your child's learning!

This is our last quarter to learn all of those 50 sight words.  Please work hard with your child this quarter, so they can achieve that huge goal for kindergarten!

Fish Bowl Auction!  The auction is this Saturday from 5:00-7:30.  I have a function to go to for the Special Olympics until 6:00, but I am planning on coming to the auction by 6:30.  I hope to see some of you there!  It is a fun night for the kids!  The buy one get one book fair will also open!  It is a great time to get some free books with your child! As a reminder, kindergartners are not able to bring money on their library day to see the book fair.  A parent or adult must be with them to purchase books.  
Our class will visit the book fair next Wednesday, April 5. 

Weather Unit 
We are finishing up our weather unit this week!  We will fit in an experiment to notice how much warmer rocks, water, sand, and dirt get when in the sun and how cooler they are in the shade.  However, we may have to do it next week when it warms up!  It doesn't reach the warm temps in the mornings.

Life Science  is our next unit.   We will learn about the interdependent relationships in ecosystems:  animals, plants, and their environments.  This will lead in to our Farm unit next week through the end of April.  

Farm Day Planning Meeting is Thursday at 4:15 in the North Activity Center.  Farm Day is similar to Apple Day.  We will have stations for the kids to do farm activities, so we need volunteers to help out at the stations.  I hope you can attend the meeting!  If not, please let me know if you can help out and I'll put you on the list.  Farm day is Friday, May 5.
