For Kindergarteners it is a time of growth both physically and intellectually. They are growing their literacy powers to become Avid Readers. The students will talk deeply about books, envisioning the drama of a story, sharing their responses and continue to use their reading muscles during reading workshop. Kindergarten children are all language learners and are ripe to learn and try out new words. Vocabulary continues to develop as the students transition more into non-fiction reading. Poetry is another opportunity that can expand word knowledge and increase vocabulary development. The ultimate goal is to celebrate children’s natural curiosity as they continue to grow their social skills along with their reading skills in an engaging, memorable, and appropriate way. We look forward to what this new season will bring! Writing Workshop This month our Writers will write stories that are “ALL About” a given topic/theme. Ask your child what their class has picked to write “ALL ABOUT” this month. Some topics/themes may change as April progresses and that is fine. Our students are most excited about this type of writing because they can show the world how much they know about a given topic and write about it with matching illustration. Math Workshop In April, students will be finishing up chapter 8 (Represent, Count, and Write numbers 20 and Beyond (up to 100). Chapter 9 focuses on a new critical area, “Identifying and Describing Shapes”. Initially, students will use attributes such as size, color, and shape to determine similarities and differences in order to answer the essential question, “How can you identify, name, and describe two-dimensional shapes?” Rainbow Kids C – WE ARE CARING This month in class, our students will be participating in Earth Day celebrations and learning how to care for our planet and environment.

children are all language learners and are ripe to learn and try out new words. Vocabulary continues to develop as the students transition more into non-fiction reading. Poetry is another opportunity that can expand word knowledge and increase vocabulary development. The ultimate goal is to
celebrate children’s natural curiosity as they continue to grow their social skills along with their reading skills in an
engaging, memorable, and appropriate way. We look forward to what this new season will bring!
Writing Workshop This month our Writers will write stories that are “ALL About” a given topic/theme. Ask your child
what their class has picked to write “ALL ABOUT” this month. Some topics/themes may change as April

Grab a glass or bottle of water next time you are thirsty.

Taller de LecturaEl tiempo de primavera es cuando los niños florecen junto con la naturaleza. Para los niños de Kindergarten es tiempo
de crecer física e intelectualmente. Ellos están aumentando su poder de alfabetización para ser Lectores Entusiastas. Los estudiantes hablarán más acerca de sus libros, se imaginarán el drama de la historia, compartirán sus respuestas y continuarán usando sus músculos de lectura durante este taller. Los/as niños/as de Kindergarten son estudiantes de lenguajes y madurez para aprender y tratar palabras nuevas. El vocabulario continúa desarrollándose a medida que los estudiantes cambian a lecturas de no-ficción. Poesía Es otra oportunidad de extender el conocimiento de las palabras y aumentar el desarrollo del vocabulario. El objetivo es celebrar la curiosidad natural a medida que ellos continúan desarrollando su capacidad social junto con la habilidad de lectura en un compromiso memorable y de una manera apropiada. ¡Anhelamos ver que es lo que esta nueva temporada traerá a los estudiantes!
Taller de Escritura Este mes nuestros Escritores escribirán historias que son “TODO ACERCA DE” de un tópico/tema dado. Pregunte a su hijo/a que fue lo que la clase escogió para escribir “TODO ACERCA DE” en este
mes. Algunos temas o tópicos pueden cambiar a medida que el mes de abril progresa y eso está muy bien. Con este tipo de escritura, los alumnos están más emocionados porque ellos pueden mostrar al mundo lo mucho que han aprendido acerca de esos temas o tópicos dados a ellos y escribir de ellos con ilustraciones para demostrarlo.
Taller de MatemáticasEn abril, los estudiantes terminaran el capitulo 8 (Representa, Cuenta y Escribe numeros del 20 en adelante, hasta el 100). El capitulo 9 se enfoca en una nueva área critica, (Identificando y Describiendo Figuras”. Inicialmente, los estudiantes
usaran sus atributos como tamaño, color, y figura para determinar las similitudes y diferencias para que puedan contestar la pregunta esencial,” ¿Cómo puedes identificar, nombrar, y describir figuras de doble-dimensión?
Niños/as Arco IrisC – SOMOS CUIDADOSOS
Este mes en clase, nuestros estudiantes participaran en la Celebración de Nuestro Planeta, ellos aprenderán a cuidarlo y cuidar el
medio ambiente, este tema continuara en nuestras asambleas de Niños/as Arco Iris. Se les recordara a los alumnos de las habilidades que pueden usar para cuidar de ellos mismos, sus amigos y miembros de sus familias. Los estudiantes de Prospect participaran en proyecto de servicio comunitario – se les invita a traer un par de medias (calcetines) nuevos a la escuela, los donaremos a la comunidad de acuerdo a nuestra área.
Dignos de Confianza es el Valor de Carácter para el mes de marzo
Rincon de Educacion FisicaEl mes pasado, viajamos el mundo explorando los bailes. Aprendimos 4 bailes. Ellos son Hokey Pokey, El Conejo Hop, El baile mexicano del Sombrero y el baile en grupo- Conga. Los estudiantes disfrutaron ese tiempo. Pregunte a sus hijos en casa para que les enseñen los bailes. ¡Encienda la música y a bailar!Consejos Sanos:
La próxima vez que tenga sed tome una botella de agua.
Para golosina, coma fruta, nueces o queso en lugar de golosinas procesadas.
Cuando sea posible cocine en casa en lugar de comer fuera
Deje que sus hijos le ayuden a planear el menú de la semana, que escriban de lo necesario para comprar y le ayuden a ir de compras.
