Hi Kinder Families,
We had a wonderful week in kindergarten. The children brainstormed our class rules and had their first gem jar celebration!
Our class rules:
1. We are kind.
2. We are safe.
3. We clean up.
4. We listen to each other.
Here is our week in a snapshot:
-worked on writing and sounds of letters a, i. and t
-heart words (words we need to know in a snap) a and I as well as added our names to the heart word wall
- practiced writing our names with proper formation
-made three make and take keep books with predictable text
-received books for our book boxes
-Continued working on becoming writers "a writer is never done they have only just begun"
-writers picture ideas in their head
-learned "why hand sanitizer works"
-released three butterflies
-learned about the life cycle of butterflies
-contined making observations in our butterfly journals
-made monarch butterfly head bands
-worked on counting to 20 and number formation up to 10
-practiced using our math menus during math (they get to choose which item on math menu they would like to practice)
-sang songs including a "Butterfly" song
-learned how to play the change game, and Doggy, who has your bone?
-went out each day three times learning how to play four square (very exciting)
