  5. What will your child learn this year in Kindergarten? In literacy: • Phonological Awareness Skills • Concept of Spoken Word • Rhyme Recognition • Rhyme Production • Syllable Blending • Syllable Segmentation • Syllable Deletion • Phoneme Isolation of Initial Sounds • Phoneme Isolation of Final Sounds • Phonemic Awareness Skills • Using Fundations • Letter recognition • Consonant sounds • Vowel sounds (short & long) • Other LiteracyComponents • Concepts About Print • Sight Words • Reading simple text Level C to D

  6. Mclass Parent Letter This letter will be going home to inform parents on what your child is being assessed on, what I am doing to help them reach the goals, and how you can help at home.

  7. What will your child learn this year in Kindergarten? In Math: • Develop number sense • Shapes – 2D (square, rectangle, circle, triangle and hexagon)& 3D (sphere, cone, cylinder, cube) • Patterns • Writing and identify numbers 0-30 • Counting 1-100, by ones and tens, and beginning at any number • Addition and subtraction word problems with fluency from 1-5. • Graphing • Measurement (non-standard)

  8. What will your child learn this year in Kindergarten? In Writing: • Currently we are working on writing our names in the proper lines and drawing people, animals and settings on topic. We are also doing opinion “I like…” • As we add words to our word wall, children will be expected to use those words in their writing. • Children will learn how to properly construct a sentence/s. • As students begin to label and/or write “sentences”, we will begin with random letters->initial sounds and write what you hear/sounding out words. It is okay for your child not to spell non-sight words “correctly”.

  9. Homework: We will slowly be adding homework in the coming weeks. We have begun with nightly reading and practicing of sight words. Please make sure your reading with your child nightly and recording it on the log. We are also sending home weekly words for you to keep at home and practice reading and writing. We will eventually send home math homework as well. Soon, your child will have a weeks worth of homework to complete Monday-Thursday night and return on Fridays.

  10. All student choices are tracked on the Frog Chart and Class Dojo. All students begin the day on green with all SOAR letters. Frogs are moved up depending on student behavior and which SOAR letter the students needs to work. Frogs that are moved to a letter may be moved back to all of letters if the teacher sees the student making improved choices. All frogs are moved back to the lily pad at the end of the day to begin with all letters the next day. If students do not improve their behavior and make better choices then the student will loose one or more of the corresponding letters for that day.  At the end of each school day, teachers will mark the calendar in the binder only if the students lost a letter. If the students is not marked then the student kept all of their SOAR letters. *A copy of the SOAR matrix is located on the back of your child’s behavior log. Behavior

  11. Field Trips: We go on 2 trips a year. Both trips align with our curriculum and will be used to supplement learning outside of the classroom. Parents are welcome on these trips, however spaces are limited for chaperones. Parents who would like to join us for field trips, will be chosen in a lottery like system. And those parents will then need a background check, which is good for only one year. Please leave siblings at home so that you can enjoy the trip with your student.
