It's been another busy week in kindergarten! Thursday the children jumped and parachuted during JumpBunch while working on team work and listening skills. They "popcorned" balls and frogs with the parachute. Thursday evening was literacy night. The kindergarten room was full of many different dinosaur themed activities and the other rooms were full of activities as well! The book fair was going on in the lobby and there were yummy cookies and milk in the lunch room for everyone to enjoy!
Language Arts:
This week in language arts we played sight word review games for lists 4-6. We also learned about the letter S and T. We worked on activities to review the letters and their sound.
Math:
We continued to review 3D shapes this week. We reviewed sphere and made a paper sphere to visualize it!We made a cone full of flowers to reinforce the cone shape and we made totem poles to learn about cylinders.
Literacy:
We have been reading Thanksgiving books this week! Monday we read "The Great Turkey Race" and disguised turkeys to keep them safe on Thanksgiving. We also read "This is the Turkey" and drew the steps for cooking a turkey.
Social Studies:
We read "Reach Out and Give" and talked about why we brought in food to give to others. The students put together the donation boxes for the food and made cards for the families. We also learned about Indian life this week through pictures and books. The students made their own Wigwams.
Science:
We began out unit on mammals by watching a powerpoint called "What is a mamal?" The class also worked together to fill in their "My Mammal Fact Book" and completed a mammal sorting activity.
Kidwriting:
Students read "Pete the Cat's First Thanksgiving" and wrote a sentence about the story.
Gym:
The students played a Thanksgiving tag game. Two students were the family and they were trying to tag their Thanksgiving turkey! Potato sack races were also played along with a Thanksgiving food throwing game :)
Reminders!!!
Indian home projects are due Monday! They will be on display in the hallway!
The center will be closed Thursday, November 27th for Thanksgiving!
Have a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!!!
