We had a busy, but productive day in kindergarten. I changed the Animal Table most of the kids were at, so we started the day learning about which table would be their new Animal Table. We worked on our calendar notebook. These children are doing a great job of writing the date, and sounding out simple words!
After calendar notebooks, we went to centers. We have new books to read at the reading center, Ms. Sarah worked with children as they wrote "Look at the" sentences, we worked in our math journals, and listened to The Emperor's Egg which is a story about penguins hatching an egg. Our math journals are getting difficult because they are asking us to count up to 20 and include addition equations. Its a challenge, but I think we can do it!
After lunch, we watched a video about the book The Mitten by Jan Brett. We talked about cause and effect and created a Flow Map. We talked about how the child lost his mitten and because that happened, the animals crawled inside it, and because that happened, the mitten was all stretched out when the little boy found it and took it home.
Our math time was spent on learning about "partners" of numbers. 1 and 9 are partners of 10, 2 and 8 are partners of 10, 3 and 7 are partners of 10, etc. They seemed to grasp this concept easily and we had fun doing our worksheet with ladybugs.
Our specials class today was Computer Lab. We were not able to get on to Lexia because there were technical difficulties. Hopefully those are resolved by Wendesday.
We also completed our Interactive Winter Book. Look for these in Friday Folders. Speaking of which, Friday Folders were sent home today because I was not able to get them out on Friday. Please return them by this Friday so we can fill them up and send them home again.
I look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday!
