Earth Day

On Friday we celebrated Earth Day!  The students created Earth day shirts and hats. We watched multiple videos about what it means to reduce, reuse, and recycle. Students had to write all the ways they do these things every day. We ended the day going on a nature hunt looking for things we find in nature around our school.

Counting by 2s and 5s

Students used 100s charts to count by 2s and 5s. They circled the patterns on their charts. We learned about even and odd numbers.

Interactive Writing

Students each came up to the SmartBoard to fill in the sentence. 

"I love _____ because ___________."All other students had to copy the sentence on the whiteboards. 

Valentine's Day

We had a wonderful celebration today in KG. Students decorated their boxes Monday and passed out their Valentine cards today. Steve the Reptile guy came and entertained the kindergarteners by showing off his snakes, alligator and other reptiles.

Partner Math

With a partner students examined the shape manipulatives. Together they had to come up with a picture using as many shapes as possible. Then students had to use the shapes to create patterns.
