Welcome to my blog! I absolutely love sharing what we do in Kindergarten through pictures and what we will be doing weekly!
You can look for my blog to be sent usually on Mondays, unless I inform you that it will be Tuesday. I will always email you the link when it's updated so you don't have to check it on your own. It is not a blog for you to reply to. You can always email me for those private conversations. Grandparents can also view it, if they like to keep up with what their grandchild is doing in Kindergarten! :)
This week we are learning so much about the procedures of Kindergarten. We are also learning each other's names and having fun doing activities to find out things we like.
Today we learned about filling up each other's buckets and why drops might be falling out of buckets. We have a class bucket that we will work as a team to fill up when we get compliments from other teachers in the hall and lunchroom, from specials teachers, and when I catch them working as a team to make our classroom "ROCK"!
We also have our table teams that are helping each other earn tally marks throughout the day. The team with the most at the end of the day earns the Oscar trophy to keep on their desk the next day!
We are Team Scott in here and learning to be HELPERS not HURTERS!
Parent Information Night--Thursday, Aug. 23 at 6:30. An info. letter is coming home today!
Sight words
We have our first sight words of the year--I, red
I will be giving you all of our sight words for the year next Thursday at our Parent Information Night.
We have 50 words to learn by the end of the year! You will get all of this information next Thursday!
Handwriting Without Tears
This is our handwriting program. Today we learned that big circles, little circles, big lines, and little lines make all of the letters and numbers. We also sang a song about our letters and numbers starting at the top!
Lunch
The kids did great at lunch today! The fifth graders came and helped us learn how to get our food and open the cartons. Unfortunately, we only have like 23 min. to eat by the time we get through the line following other classes. We will have five kindergarten classes and two 3 grade classes in lunch together beginning next week! So, waiting in line will shorten our lunch at times. It will help the kids greatly to finish their lunches if they start eating right away and keep their visiting at a minimal.
There's so much to learn in a full day kindergarten as you can see!! I'll keep informing you as new things are happening!
