Kindergarten Hammond Hawk Talk: Reminder! All Bedroom Maps Are Due Tomorrow

We are very excited about seeing your child's map! Some maps have already made their way to Hammond and look fabulous with lots of details and labels! We can't wait to showcase them in the hallway.
As a reminder, these maps should be drawn on a sheet of 8.5 x 11 inch paper, that was supplied in last Tuesday envelope, then colored to reflect various items in your child's room. Please help your child label the larger items such as a bed, dresser, table, toy box, etc.

Thanks again for helping our students gain a better understanding of map making.

Math Update

Be sure to ask your child about reading Grandma's Button Box at school. After reading this book, we learned four ways to sort objects: by color, size, shape, and number of button holes. We also played sorting games on the SMART Board, sorting buttons into categories.
