I Am Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving KG Families!

 I am so thankful for all of you, especially your kindergartner. 


Calendar: During calendar, we continue to talk about days of the week, months and look at patterns on the calendar pieces. We also keep track of how many days we have been in school with paperclips and on a hundreds chart. We now are using the date to show on ten frames. 

 

 Math: We are learning about 10 frames, which is the framework for ones and tens places. We are learning more about teen numbers and the ten frames help us understand that 10 and 1 make 11 etc...



 

 

 

Thanksgiving: This week we learned about Thanksgiving and why we celebrate. We talked a lot about what we are thankful for and why.












Second Steps: This week we talked more about acknowledging how we feel and how to calm down. We practiced stopping, naming our feelings, and calming down by breathing, counting or using positive self talk. 


SOAR Rewards: Today we watched Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving and yesterday we earned playing at Stacy Park. Lots of strong choices equal lots of positive rewards!
