May 14 - 18

The kindergarteners had a fun, but busy Spirit Week! They enjoyed showing their school spirit by dressing up each day. Even with all of the fun activities like Field Day and the Talent Show, the students still got plenty of work done. In Language Arts, the students worked on Word Work, and the "u" Vowel Sound (both long and short). We read the book, The Z was Zapped, and they had so much fun figuring out what happened to each letter of the alphabet in the story. In Math, we started Topic 14 which focuses on Time. 

We also had some visitors this week, due to our Community Helpers unit in Social Science. The fire department came on Tuesday. Unfortunately, we had to cut the visit short due to a call the fire fighters received. But, the students got a chance to see what happens when they need to respond in an emergency.  On Thursday, Officer Rich from the San Francisco Police Department came, and spoke with the students about safety. He showed us all of the tools he uses on a daily basis, and the students asked some very important questions.

Hope everyone had a wonderful week!
