Happy Birthday, Taylor! ~ Math Table Tops ~ Class Picture ~ Our Year

Happy Birthday, Taylor!!

The math area was open for Table Tops.



We finally had everyone here and it wasn't raining, so we took our final class picture.  The final page for your child's scrapbook is coming home today.


We wrote a book about kindergarten for the next group of KC kids.  We used photos to illustrate the book.  We have calendar in kindergarten. 

We take P.E.

We water plants.

We tell our teachers how we are going home each day.

We have a daily schedule.

Cookie Soup!

We read Stone Soup yesterday and Cookie Soup today.  The class decided that cookie soup sounded better than stone soup.  Here is the onion crew cutting onions for the soup.

Broccoli and Cauliflower

Asparagus

Corn, Green Beans, and Garlic

The cookie is floating at the top.  The soup is ready to cook.

The soup was delicious.  People came from near and far (or from down the hall) to see what was cooking in our room. 

Who would have thought that we got such delicious soup from one cookie!  :)

Musical Assembly ~ 4th Grade Buddies

After Assembly, we played with our 4th grade buddies.  We were thrilled to have a nice morning, so we went out to the playground to play.  The LS Strings performed at Assembly.  Ask your KC kid who the villain was!

Additional pictures from today are posted in KC Photos.

We rested in the tent.  The girls had the first turn, and then the boys went next.

We had a busy day that included a few extras.  We went to the Pre-K play this morning, went outside in Science, said good-bye to the baby chicks, enjoyed a strings concert, and ran around during an extra recess.

We look forward to seeing you at conferences!

Wolves & Sheep ~ Math ~ Class Story

We read a very fun book about a few wolves trying to infiltrate a flock of sheep.

We made masks to act out the story.


Sheep

Wolves

Kids

We worked on math sentences.

We played a math game called Clear the Board.  Ask your KC kid how we determined the winner.  It wasn't necessarily the person with the most cubes.

Math Patterns

We wrote a story at the end of the day.  Everyone brought home a copy of the story.
