Field Trip

Kindergarten will be taking a field trip to the Dallas Zoo on April 12th. We sent home field trip permission forms this past week. We would LOVE lots of chaperones to attend the field trip with us. If you think you might like to come, please return the permission slip and make sure that you go on the TCE website and have a background check filled out. We cannot take any parents who have not filled out a background check. Thank you!!! ALL PERMISSION SLIPS ARE DUE MARCH 29th. If your child did not bring one home, please contact your teacher.

Next week.....

Language Arts

We are working in our new lined journals when writing. We are concentrating on expository writing.

We continue to use fluency when reading while making text connections to what we are reading.

Social Studies

We are learning about different land forms on the earth and where you can find them.

Math

Students will observe that certain attributes of an object can be measured. Learners will make direct comparisons of items being measured. For example, direct comparisons can be done by laying objects next to each other, or setting them on opposite sides of a balance, or filling two containers with scoops of rice.

Math Home Activity

Have your child compare the weights of two household objects. Then have him or her use the terms heavier and lighter to describe the weights.

Science:

Learners will continue to sort animals into groups based on physical characteristics such as color, size, or body covering. Learners will begin to discover habitats of a variety of animals.
