Wednesday!!!!

Busy, fun day!  Favorite books of the day "Dirty Joe the Pirate" and "I'm the Biggest Thing in the Ocean".  I have been assessing these very smart kindergartners and it is wonderful to see how much they have learned this year!  They are amazing!!!  I'm not kidding - even when they are crazy....

Tuesday!!!!

Another wonderful day in Room 2!!  What can I say...these kindergartners are an amazing lot!  After our morning warm-up job we read a book from the "favorites" pile.  We love "city dog, country frog".  I am re-reading all of our favorites.....gotta get them in one more time before the end of the year!

We also talked about, wrote about and viewed video about kites!  I brought in an Octopus kite and one I just purchased at Ocean Shores for our beach day...




I sent home a permission slip for our Faye Bainbridge field trip.  I will email an electronic copy of that also.  I will be collecting a $3 donation.  Students will bring a sack lunch that day.  I would love any extra treats or fruit to make our lunches special.  I also would love some volunteers to hang out with us.....we leave around 9 AM and will be back around noon.  Should be a fun day!

This Friday is special snack day.  Please send a snack in with your child - we will put them all in a basket and I will pass them out.  It's fun to eat a snack prepared by someone else.  We will eat them outside while reading some good stories.

I will be working at McDonald's tomorrow night to earn money for Special Education.  Come on down between 6 and 8, if you are a McDonald's eating kind of family!

Monday!!!

The days are flying by....I don't want to do a countdown as I am already starting to miss these kindergartners.

We loved "Stanley's Party".  We also read "Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge" and drew pictures of our Kindergarten memories.


We surprised Mr. Adair with a birthday banner, cards, golf balls and cupcakes!


We worked hard (and loud) as usual.......

A whole lot of reading went on around here...it is the BEST being a kindergartner teacher and watching these amazing students READ!!!!!  We finally got a free-choice time...had to miss a couple this week...

Wednesday!!!!

Your kindergartners came in looking a tad bit tired!  Weren't they wonderful last night?!?!?!?!?!?  Oh how I love this class!

Amazing art...



We were able to work on writing, making up our own "Scranimal" after reading some of the poems, measuring for math, and reading with our reading buddies!

Rainy Tuesday!!!!

We are practicing away in here....I am afraid we haven't been singing our favorite songs lately - you parents will have to help us sing tonight!

We started the Fitness Challenge today.  Wow, these kindergartners were really hyped-up about doing those laps!  It was cute; smiling, red-cheeked, running kids...

Here they are reading their poems!
