   Kindergarten Announcements

ELA

We had a great week reading more books about kindergarten.  We read The Big Orange Splot and used markers to decorate our own house to look like our dreams. We practiced rhyming and alphabet sounds and practiced the 3 ways to read a book.  We launched Daily 5 by building stamina for “Read to Self” and met our goal of reading for 10 uninterupted minutes!

Writing

We started journals this week.  We learned where to write words and where to draw illustrations in our journal.  We also learned that we need to draw pictures that match what our words say.  

Math

We noticed, wondered and explored a variety of math tools.  We worked with connecting cubes, pattern blocks, counters/5 frames, and geo blocks.

P2

We will spend this year learning how to build strong relationships with each other through our Positivity Project.  We will do this by practicing the “Other People’s Mindset” and learning about a different character strength each week.
