Farm Fun! 🐣

We couldn’t have picked a better day for a field trip! It was just beautiful! Hopefully you heard some of fun things we did on our trip! Enjoy the pictures!

Happy Holidays!

It may have been 6 weeks since I last posted but I resolve in 2019 to do a better job publishing pictures of these hard working kids!! 

PJ day was a success!  Enjoy the pictures of these comfy cuties! 

🍁Fall Fun!🍁

It’s been a busy couple of weeks in kindergarten! The kids made me so happy at conferences last week. I just loved watching them proudly show you some of what they have learned in this short amount of time. Thank you for your continued support at home. The home/school connection is imperative for social and academic growth. You are all wonderful parents! ❤️

Last week we had fun painting pumpkins. Yesterday we created a beautiful fall bulletin board. Enjoy the pictures below!

Fire Station Fun! 🚒

We had a wonderful trip to the fire station today! Firefighter Dale did an amazing job captivating the kids attention and reminding them the importance of fire safety. 

This week went by in a flash! We were busy learning new word wall words: the and little, reading new books, studying different math patterns and writing EVERY day!!! Most importantly, I have observed some wonderful moments of kindness and compassion amongst the group. I am thrilled to see that this is a class that loves to build each other up! ❤️

Earlier in the week we discussed the difference between a repeating pattern and growing pattern. Ask your child to describe the difference!

Did you notice the paper bag platypus come home this week? This is a character from one of the stories we read. When the kids finished making their platypus, I asked them to read stories to it!!















Hopefully you saw this book come home this week. You will see these paper books come home on a weekly basis. I am the first to admit that the content is not too exciting 😜 but the pattern and repetition of words helps build reading fluency.  Please take some time each week to practice reading these short stories. 

 I am working on encouraging kids to spend time reading books that are “just right” for them. After a period of quiet reading, I asked the kids to choose a favorite part from the story. I was so proud of their work! 

We ended the week with some fun with apples! The kids made wonderful observations of their apples...inside and out! 🍎🍏
