We did it!
We had our first full week of Kindergarten!
Here are some of our highlights:
Every day that we have a new letter
we create a page for our alphabet book.
We will send these home toward the end of October! So much messy and creative fun!
On Monday we created these adorable alligator purses to hold pictures of things that begin with Aa!
Plus we read and sang the song that goes with it!
We created these cutie-patootie Corduroy bears on Wednesday!
Once again photos were optional so if you don't see your kiddo they didn't come up for a photo.
We created a Thank You gift for you!
I want you to know how grateful I am for all your help with the beginning of the school year!
The donations are much appreciated, too.
You parents are AMAZING!
We have our first two 100 CLUB kids!
They counted to 100 without any assistance or errors!
Way to go!
Most years all the kids reach this goal by the end of March. Keep practicing if your kiddo is not there yet!
We will have learning centers
every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon.
If you or any family member would like to volunteer in our classroom, this is a time that we could use more hands!
You could sign up for 1 or 2 days or commit for longer, just let me know and I will send you details!
Tuesday's centers included:

ABC Bear fine motor activity:

The kiddos rotate to all 5 stations!
It takes us about an hour.
What fun!
Every morning the k kids sign
on the Morning Message Chart:
This was a particularly tasty looking chart for Dd day!
This week (and next Monday) we practiced reading with the help of Brown Bear!
At morning meeting we have been playing this fun game as practice clapping our syllables.
It's called Little Bear, Little Bear,
We Can't Find You Anywhere!
On Friday I introduced INITIALS to the kids. They will use their initials when signing in on the chart every day was well as when a paper or project does not have a special spot for our NAME.
