February and March flew by.... Silas continues to do a great job at school. He completed some very neat Kansas day projects and learned about our state.
He is doing extremely well in math. He adds and subtracts simple math easily. His teacher sent home some extra work (more challenging) for him to work on at home and get more ahead.
You have been eating school lunch occasionally this year. What are some of your favorite school lunch items?Silas: "Quesadilla and Italian Dunkers"
Silas has homework every week night. He gets a packet of kindergarten homework to complete and turn in on the last day of the school week and a first grade packet of homework to complete and turn in on the last day of the school week as well. He works on skills like reading, handwriting, math, reading comprehension, and language arts.
He had some fun doing Valentine and Martin Luther King Jr. projects in his classroom.
Below, he made me this Valentine....addressed to Mrs. Hendrickson, because I have been subbing a lot her his school. It says, "Mrs. Hendrickson, I love you. You are a good mom. I hope you have a good time subbing. Love, Silas."
What did you enjoy about your Valentine party in your classroom?Silas: "opening the cards and eating the snacks"
What do you like to do during outside recess?
Silas: "play soccer and basketball and I go down the slides"
Silas was moved to the HIGH first grade reading group recently. Yay! He is excelling at reading this year. One of the fun things that he gets to do in his new high level reading group is playing "sight word BINGO".
We attended the kindergarten family night in March. It had a Dr. Seuss theme. All of the kids could do projects with their families. And, there was a back drop to take a Dr. Seuss family photo.
What do you like the most about P.E. class this year?
Silas: "Everything. Games I like to play are Slimeball and Limbo. We are getting ready for field day now so sack racing, running, and hula-hooping."
Below, Silas had three art projects displayed at the district wide art fair.
Who are some of your favorite friends at school this year?Silas: "Collin and Owen and my teachers"
What do you like learning about at school?
Silas: "reading and learning words"
Silas's 3rd nine weeks report card reflected a job well done! Way to go smart boy!!! Keep working hard.
