New Year Means Setting Goals in Kindergarten
Kindergarten is excited to begin the new year with a plan. Our teachers have orchestrated a plan to assist scholars in meeting and surpassing standards for kindergarten. This semester our scholars will be on track to conquer several standards, all while developing a core social and emotional environment on campus. The following standards are a just few the teachers have begun implementing to prepare their scholars for 1st grade:
1. Reading over 50 high frequency words
2. Composing opinion writing samples
3. Computation of addition and subtraction equations
K.RF.2 Demonstrate understanding of spoken words, syllables, and sounds (phonemes).
K.RF.3 Know and apply phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words.
K.W.1 With guidance and support from adults, use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose opinion pieces in which they tell a reader the topic or the name of the book they are writing about and state an opinion or preference about the topic or book (e.g., My favorite book is . . .).
K.OA.A Understand addition as putting together and adding to, and understand subtraction as taking apart and taking from.
Fearless First Grade

Fearless First Grade is continuing the charge of designing opportunities of learning that reflect high expectations for all scholars. We are ensuring scholars are achieving through frequent progress-monitoring through formal and informal assessment. Be on the ‘Look Out” for more details. We are striving to provide scholars with a rich learning experience through innovation and creative activities. We are extremely happy that you are a part of our learning community. Happy 2021!
Successful Second Grade
Ms. Elliott, Ms. Hernandez, Ms. Ross
Our second graders are brushing up on their math skills by working with pennies and dimes, adding two-digit numbers, and diving deep into fractions. In science, they are becoming experts on the body and nutrition, learning about their senses, reproductive systems, and caring for their bodies. In this new year our successful second graders are ready to grow from teamwork, observing how our community works and knowing that through any hardships, as a community, we always RISE together.
