Items in the past have included but were not limited to: toothpicks, cotton balls, paper clips, stickers, cereal pieces, dots, pictures, etc.—be creative!! Have fun!! We will take all of the creations and create a 100 museum for all the children to take a tour through. Please be sure that your child’s name is on their poster board so that it may be returned. Please ask your child to count out the items by ones, fives, AND tens. Your child should be doing the creating, gluing and counting with your assistance ONLY if necessary. This is a hands-on project for your child.
Also, if you can donate fruit loops for our 100th day necklaces please let me know (we will need 2 boxes).
This should be a fun day for the children. They’ve been practicing counting to 100 so this will be a fun way to celebrate their efforts! If you have any questions please let us know.
(See Kindergarten timeline project information on the BACK of this sheet and use attached paper to complete—thank you!)
Kindergarten Timeline Project
As part of the Math and Social Studies curriculum, we have been talking about how people use a timeline to shown events over time. As part of the Social Studies curriculum, it is expected that each child completes a timeline of their life to show the past present, and future. Please use the attached construction paper with the template with started in class. Please use a photograph or picture in the box and include a sentence explaining what is going on in the picture using the sentence stems
“In the past, I was ___________.”
“In the present, I am ____________.”
“In the future, I will _________.”
Please have your child practice sharing their timeline at home so they are prepared to share with the class. We are working on talking in complete sentence so your child will be expected to read (say) all 3 sentences on their paper on their own.
These projects will be due Wednesday, March 7.
Thank you for your assistance with this project. Your child will need your help but please allow them to do as much as possible (they should do the cutting, gluing, and WRITING!) They aslo need to practice speaking for sharing their project.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Mrs. Rawson and Ms. Fowler
