Hello Kindergarten families! I am so excited to be back and teaching your children! Here are some highlights from our week:
- In math, we were introduced to a new center called "Sea Creatures". With these sea creatures, we will practice sorting, counting by 1's, 2's, 5's, 10's, patterning, etc.
- In language arts we practiced the strategy of summarizing after reading a story.
- In science, we started learning about winter. We talked about and recorded what we already know about winter and what we want to know about winter. We also decided that we will learn about winter by reading, asking an expert, and exploring.
- We have some fun new items added to our community centers to go with our "winter" theme. Our dramatic play has been turned into a hot chocolate shop. We are practicing taking orders, preparing the hot chocolate (chocolate scented play-dough), and exchanging money. We are also working on strengthening our hand and finger muscles, as well as working on our creativity while making snowmen out of play-dough.
- Heart word of the week: "have"
- Special theme of the week: "winter"
