KINDERGARTEN NEWS!
This week we started chapter 8 of Go Math! This fun chapter focuses on numbers beyond 20! Now is a great time to listen to your child count up to 100! During the next few weeks we will practice sequencing higher numbers, counting by tens and identifying missing numbers through 100. Try this at home: have your clever mathematician close their eyes, point to a number on a hundreds chart, open their eyes and then count on from that number to 100! Here's another challenge: Ask, "What number comes after 65? What number comes in between 43 and 45? What number comes BEFORE 32? Offer items such as puzzle pieces, a bunch of Legos, cotton balls, spoons and encourage counting beyond 20! During Writer's Workshop we started a new unit as well, "How-To Books." If you missed last week's update click on the link below for more information regarding our current endeavor!

Our Little Artists…..
We learned about the artist Marc Chagall. He began as a painter, where everyday objects seem to defy the laws of gravity. Cows and people float in space high above the rooftops of a distant village. We used his style to create our own dreamlike pictures.
Students have their favorite animals floating over Boonton.
In his later years Chagall created a set of glowing blue stained glass windows. Each one telling a story. We created our own stained glass windows.
