This week flew by! With no school on Monday and me gone on Tuesday, it seemed like the week got away from us quickly! We still managed to get some great learning in!
Here are our learning goals:
Reading: Predicting, one to one correspondence. These friends are putting together our poem puzzle from last week looking for each word.
No Excuse Words: is, it We found the word is in our A book.
Fundations: Letter formations, name and sound a, g
Writing: We don't give up! Even when it's hard. We read, "The little engine that could". We told ourselves, "We think we can!".
Math: Sorting by attribute, counting forward, counting back, patterns
Here is the winner of our counting game!
Character Education: We are alike we are different - Each week we have a new Character skill we are working on. Last week it was kindness. This week we are learning about appreciating and understanding differences. We begin our day with a read aloud that focuses on this skill. It's been wonderful to watch them learn and grow in this area. We learned that even though we may look different and have different experiences, we all have a heart and want to be liked. We took this picture to celebrate.
Kinder Craft: Most Fridays we try to make some kind of craft. These are great extensions of our academic learning and give us great opportunities to practice our fine motor skills. Our kinder craft of the week was making fall trees. They will hang on our bulletin boards. We read this book and made our own little tree. We used our fine motor skills to tear the leaves for our trees. This book also reinforced our lesson to keep on trying even when something is hard. Ask your child to tell you about this book!
Science:
Ms. Lisa brought some amazing creatures to visit our room! She incubated snake eggs and they hatched! They are black rat snakes and they are beautiful. The kids were excited to get a closer look.
We are excited to welcome a new friend to our classroom! We are glad you're here!
