Another busy day in Kindergarten.
I can’t thank you enough for your patience with the beginning of this year. On top of the high numbers in Kindergarten, we high temperatures too! Tough for little and big people. Thank you again for your patience…you are wonderful.
Today we began with creating our day’s agenda. Of course, because they had their lunches with them, they were all hungry by 9:30. 🙂 Good lunch choices. All of my students brought their lunches today, which made things go so smoothly for them when we went into the cafeteria. They were hungry and didn’t have to wait in a lunch line to buy their lunch. They went straight to their table and started eating. Wonderful.
We started making a book today and will finish it tomorrow. Look for it to come home. The title is “I Can…” Let them point as they read their book to you. Yes, it’s short but that’s how we start. Imagine making a book on your first 2 days of Kindergarten…pretty fabulous!
We read 3 stories, talked about the different ways we get to school, made a chart with those different ways with our names on it, counted, and graphed the results. Pretty amazing for beginning Kindergarten.
We also had Centers-Playhouse, Wooden Blocks, Math (Pattern Blocks) and Science (Balance Scales).
We had Recess and finished our day (after Lunch) with a Group time, discussing things we did today. No photos today…didn’t get my phone backed up last night.
With the Assessments that I have given, I am very pleased with the readiness of these students. They seem to know most of the letters, upper and lower case, can count to 30 and higher, and can tell me some things about themselves and their family. Some are reading words form a beginning Sight Word List.
Great Job Parents!!! Keep up your good work.
Here’s to another fun day tomorrow.
