Please be patient as we continue to work through this new online learning journey together.

War
Take your deck of cards and share them equally between two players. Have the cards face down and flip over at the same time. Each player will call out their number. Whoever has the largest number takes the cards and places them off to the side. Have your child say as they pick up the cards "9 is bigger than 5 ". Once a player no longer has cards the game is over. You can play the game again with the person with the lowest number wins the cards.

Today was an outstanding day in Kindergarten.  We talked about what makes up a community and the interesting places we can find right in our own community of Tuscany.  We continued to explore community helpers and the jobs they do in our community.  We completed a journal response where we drew a picture of what we want to be when we grow up. Our arrival centers included a chance to explore shapes.  We built buildings with shapes, used plasticine & toothpicks to make 3-D shapes, used geo-boards & elastics to make shapes and played shape roll & write.  Please ask your child what shape center they explored today.
