This week the kindergarten students were very busy. Thursday we had a field trip and Friday our friends from Mechanicsburg School District joined us for the day. Check out the bottom of the post for next weeks activities!
Language Arts:
This week in language arts the students worked on letter K and L identification and sound. They read "Kim and Ken" and "Liz and Len" and completed sensory and letter writing activities. We created the book "I Like" and practiced the road to good talking actions.
Math:
In math we worked on numbers 2 - 4. We played a #2 recognition game, made #2 from wiki stix and used rainbow writing for the #2. For the #3 we played a turtle matching game and colored number people. #4 had us picking different paper nuts and cracking them open to find the number inside. We also made the #4 by connecting blocks and made a magic 4 with masking tape.
Literature:
In literature we read "Bad Boys" by Margie Palatini and drew pictures of the beginning, middle and end events. We also read "Bad Boys Get Cookie" and drew pictures of how we would catch the cookie!
Science:
In science we learned about the water cycle and filled in our own water cycle booklets! We also shared our cloud journals from over the weekend!
Social Studies:
We reviewed types of feelings and read "Pigeon Has Feelings Too." We matched feelings to stations and created a feelings book.
Kidwriting:
We are beginning to write a letter to show a word. The students are using the initial letter for their object and then kidwriting for the rest of the word.
Next Week!
