Week of March 2nd

It's hard to believe that we have entered the month of March already!  Bring on the warmer weather!!! This week we are dancing our way into March with some fun hip hop dance classes taught by Luv2Groove.  We will be going all week for 30 minutes a day.  Today was our first day dancing and the kids had so much fun!

This year, we will be collecting pasta noodles for our North of 60 Lenten project.  A note is coming home tonight with more details.  Our kindergarten students are asked to donate 454g bags of spaghetti, rotini, small bowtie and elbow macaroni.  Your generosity and support is very much appreciated.

Our letter this week is "y".  We talked about all the sounds this letter makes and how it can trick us when sounding words out.  Our word is "my".  Ask your child to sing the song they learned today.

This afternoon, we read an amazing story called "The Invisible Boy".  The children were captivated by this story and were able to make so many personal connections.  We spoke about how one simple act of kindness can be contagious and can really change someone's day.  It was nice to hear about kind acts that the students have done or received from others.

Just a reminder that the school will be closed on Thursday, March 5th and will re-open on Friday.

Here are some pictures from today:
