Mr. Wucherer's Classroom News (May 20th-24th)  

A Peek At The Week: Essential question:  What ideas can you suggest to protect the environment?  New Vocabulary Words:  environment, protect, recycle, wisely, and encourage.  Please review these words with your child.  Look for us to be reviewing long and short vowel sounds and finding these sounds in words we read.  We will be continuing to locate and write pronouns in the text and our writing.  Students will work on the strategy of rereading the informational text for information they might have missed or not comprehended while we read the text together.  We will be continuing to ask and answer questions as we read the text and work on our guided retelling.  Math will find us continuing to compose and decompose numbers 11-19, 3-D Shapes and reviewing all our Math skills we have learned this year on the IXL Math site.  This site can be found on my webpage.  We will also be working on our review center areas each of the three days we are in the classroom next week.  Lastly, we will be finishing up our All About Me Books.  This will be a wonderful way to remember our awesome year in kindergarten and all the cool friends we met along the way!!!  We hope to start a couple lessons for our author study of Eric Carle. We will be finishing up these activities the last week of school!! 

Looking Ahead:     Eric Carle Week!  Thank you so much for allowing me to teach your child.  I am always amazed at how far they come in such a short time!  It has been a pleasure getting to know your family and please stop by to say hello next year when you pass by our classroom!  Have a safe and relaxing summer!  Mr. Wucherer
