With today being the first day of December, we made our December calendars. Both classes were so excited and I LOVED seeing all the creative ideas they put into making them. They all turned out so cute! The calendars we make in class give my kinder friends wonderful practice with writing their numbers 1-31 with the correct number formation, number recognition, problem solving, following step-by-step directions, and strengthening their fine motor skills with cutting, writing and coloring. It also gives them the opportunity to use their creativity into designing their own project to give it their own unique details. They had so much fun making their calendars. The room was full of smiles, giggles, and proud voices when they finished making their calendars today! I heard a lot of things such as "Mrs. Naughten look at my cute gingerbread girl/boy!" or "Mrs. Naughten, I had so much fun making my calendar today!" What a fun day in kindergarten! With gym, music and our calendars we had a fun filled day today!
