Morgan Rothschild
Academy Kindergarten Room News May 2012
At Morgan Rothschild Academy, this month has been very exciting and full
of a lot of preparations for the Spring Concert! The children were so happy to
share their hard work with family and friends. We are very proud of the Morgan
Rothschild Academy, MRA Kindergarten class and all of their friends in other
classes for their wonderful performances! Thank you for attending our special
event
Apart from preparing
for the final Morgan Rothschild Academy Concert, we also celebrated the Easter
holiday together this April. The Kindergarten class and Preschool class came
together to have an Easter egg hunt! Some eggs were difficult to find, while
others were a little easier to look for. Our class was very helpful to the
younger ones, and some of the Kindergarteners even found some eggs that were very
well hidden long after the egg hunt had ended. We have some good, strong eyes
in our class! The kids had a ton of fun!
Morgan Rothschild
Academy, MRA also visited the zoo this past month, as well! Our kids were
extremely excited about seeing all of their favorite animals and more. Some of
the animals we saw were monkeys, tigers, and elephants. The children already
knew some facts about the animals, but were pleased to learn even more by
seeing them firsthand.
At Morgan Rothschild
Academy, there has been a focus on reviewing sentence structure, which we have
previously covered in our class. Part of our MRA curriculum has recently been
about asking questions, and the Kindergarten class has caught on nicely. We
have spent time working on correcting sentences that are wrong, and creating a
question when it is necessary. They have also been able to remember which word
is a noun, and which is an action word (verb) when looking at a sentence. We
will continue to work with nouns and verbs. I will begin more review about
plural and proper nouns, which we have also previously covered at school. The
children have been doing very well with our review sessions and continue to
learn the new content without much issue.
The children have
been enjoying different phonics games we have been playing. One of the games we
play is a phonics scavenger hunt, in which the kids search the room for
different words that contain the sound we are studying that week. Once they
find a few words, they must tell the class and we work on sound blending and
reading these words, as well as their meanings. It is very amusing!
This month, we
will continue with review and new content in all the subjects at Morgan
Rothschild Academy. We have been reading many books about different homes and areas
of the world. The kids are extremely interested in travel and learning about
other cultures, which does not surprise me! I am making sure to use this
interest as a focus, as we are all able to learn from each other and the many
different places we come from and have been to in our lives.
