What a week!

We have had so much fun this week learning in kindergarten! I am so beyond proud of how much my kindergarten friends are growing as readers and writers. They are doing such a wonderful job reading and writing words on their own with the learned sounds from our HMH program. Way to go, K-1!

Since it's the begining of the month, we made our November calendars. The class always love making these calendars to see what is happening both in our class and at Olive for the month. They did such a wonderful job following my step-by-step directions in making their turkeys!

In math, I am teaching them about the concepts of "more than" and "less than" when comparing two groups together. They are doing an excellent job learning this new concept and applying it on their own when they work on the workbook pages. Way to go, K-1! In science, we are continuing to learn about the weather. They like being scientists!

Today we read a book called My Friends from our HMH literacy program. It was such a cute story about a little girl who learned various skills, movement, and life lessons from people or animals in her life. To go along with it we did a cute activity where they created the little girl at the top with a following directions activity and on the bottom they got to draw and write about something they learned from someone in their life. I was AMAZED by all their fabulous drawings and the ideas they came up with. WOW!!! My kindergarten friends are learning so much and growing more and more each day as learners. It is so much fun to see the growth they are making and how much fun they are all finding in learning!

Happy Halloween!

It was such a fun Halloween last Friday in K-1! In class on Friday, we had a parade and Halloween party. When the kids came back from lunch and came in the classroom for the afternoon, I had so much fun greeting all my kindergarten friends and seeing them all dressed in their adorable Halloween costumes! They all had so much fun parading around the school and participating in some Halloween fun at our classroom party! A HUGE thank you to our wonderful Room Reps that organized and planned such fabulous party and the parents that helped today! THANK YOU! It will be a day my kindergarten friends will always remember! Happy Halloween, everyone and I hope everyone had fun trick-or-treating on Saturday. It was great weather for it!!
