Tuesday, Feb.25

Today we continued to work on our small worlds. We worked with different partners than yesterday to re-create a new winter habitat for an animal. We reviewed what would be important for animals to have in the winter with them; anywhere from things like a shelter, trees, bushes, food and water. Please ask your child what animal they built a habitat for today and what their animal does in winter in order to survive (hibernate, adapt or migrate).

Both AM and PM kindergarten students worked on a new math problem today. There are 10 legs in the snow. How many animals are there? We drew out our animals and counted up the legs in our math journals. Ask me how I solved it? Is there more than one answer?

Both groups had gym and music today.

Please practice the "7 Feet of Snow" song with your child. We will be performing this song at our Celebration of Learning. We need a little extra practice with the end of the song as the lyrics are very quick!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!  Kindergarten was very fun today.  All of our arrival centers were about Halloween. We printed halloween words, played bingo, roll and count game with rings, crafts etc. We loved seeing everyone dressed up in their costumes!  We drew pictures of ourselves in our Halloween costumes in our journals.  Some of us drew pictures of pumpkins, jack-o-lanterns, and trick or treating with our families.  We used Smarties to sort by color and graph the number of Smarties in the box.  Ask your child what color they had most in their box.  After students graphed their Smarties, they got to eat them.  This was the highlight of their day! All students had gym today with Mr. Der . What game did your child play today? Ask them to share. Students came home with overflowing colored folders.  Please empty the folders out and return them on Monday.  Every child has more book circles in their folders.  Thank you for continuing to read with your child and send the circles back.  We are
