Next week in Phonics we will be learning about the consonant “Cc” as in cat, cupcake, and Clifford!
The rule for the /k/ sound is: Use Kk when the /k/sound is followed by the letters e, i, or y and use Cc when the /k/ sound is followed but the letters a, o, u or any consonant. Word List 10 came home today and will be tested Friday, February 1st. Show and Tell for the letter Cc will be on Friday, February 1st.
In Reading, we’ll read “Hide Clyde.” Clyde is a chameleon that doesn't know how to hide. While his siblings effortlessly match whatever they happen to be sitting on, he stands out like a sore thumb. Luckily for him, his bug-catching skills are great. A bigger-than-usual bug flies off with him, dumping him in a house -- which Clyde makes the best of, finally mastering his hiding skills before getting a ride back to the jungle. We will be discussing changing for protection. Students will learn about main ideas. Please be sure to review your Family Times when it comes home next week.

Monday was a very busy day in Kindergarten. First, we had our monthly Guidance lesson with Mrs. Hull. She talked to our class about “Jump Rope for Hearts.” Information about this program was sent home last Friday. Students will participate in “Jump Rope for Hearts” on February 13th. Next, we learned about the inauguration of President Obama and we even got to watch him take the oath of office! Finally, we learned about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the dream that he had. We learned that it doesn’t matter what we look like on the outside, it’s what is on the inside that matters!
Report Cards were sent home on Wednesday, January 23rd. Please sign and return them as soon as possible.
