Literacy:  
materials - pencil, paper, pencil crayons/markers/crayons

Read the "I Am" poem with your learner. Have them act it out. Have your learner practice reading the poem, putting their finger under each word as they read. Have your learner count the number of words in each line. Have your learner count the number of letters in each line. They could practice writing the words " I am ". They could finish the sentence "I am" and draw a picture to go with their sentence. Please remember your 5 star drawing.




Math:
materials - deck of cards

Play Go Fish. Grab a deck of cards and a partner. Deal out 5 cards to each player. Players take turns asking others for a match to one of the cards in your hand. For example: "Susie do you have a 2?"  If yes, the asker keeps the pair of cards. If no, the asker takes a card from the go fish pile. Then it is the next players turn. Play until all cards have been matched. The winner has the most pairs. Consider only playing with the number cards in the deck (removing the face cards) so that learners can focus on recognition of numbers 1-10.

Challenge of the day: 
materials - be creative ... anything you have at home that you can build with!

Build a tower as tall as you are! Feel free to email us a picture of you standing next to the tower you built. We can't wait to see them!

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.
