All About Groundhog Day

Since tomorrow is Groundhog Day, we spent some of our kindergarten day learning about what this fun holiday is. They had fun learning about it and making groundhog hats. We also learned some fun facts about groundhogs too such as: Did you know that groundhogs incisor teeth keep growing and growing? They gnaw on sticks and wood to sharpen them and keep them shorter. If they didn't do that, groundhogs would have some VERY LONG teeth! In class, I did a groundhog directed draw with them too and they wrote a sentence about what they predict will happen tomorrow. I saw many friends write about how they hope the groundhog doesn't see his shadow so we can have an early spring. It was such a fun day today! I am so incredibly proud of how far my kinder friends are coming as readers and writers. Their writing today was AMAZING!  Here are some pictures I took of both classes wearing their adorable groundhog hats. They of course wanted to take a few silly pictures. They are too cute!




















Tomorrow we will be celebrating our 100th day of kindergarten! They are so EXCITED!!!! It's going to be such a fun day celebrating this big day with all my AMAZING kinder friends!
