Our Week Of Learning!

It was a busy week of learning.  We are working hard on learning our numbers in math.  We are also beginning to tally numbers 1 to 20.

We loved finding numbers on our "number" pumpkin.

  In Social Sciences we learned about force and motion.  We had fun exploring with magnets.

We discovered the magnets stuck to our desk chairs.

We practiced our sight words by dotting them with 

Q-tips dipped in paint.

We are working on putting our numbers in order from 1 to 20 as quickly as possible.

  We are working hard on being GREAT readers!

We made pilgrim boys and girls this week during writing.  We wrote what we were thankful for. (Activity from First Grade blue Skies)

  Did you know that writing your sight words with smelly markers helps you learn them???

 We did a little turkey feather addition in math.

Mrs. Deremer visited on Friday and read another book to us.  A big thank you to Wells Fargo for the book.

Don't forget to send in items to help out our food drive.  Kindergarten is collecting health and beauty items.

Have a great weekend!

Our Week In Review

Wow what a busy week! We continued to learn about pumpkins and celebrated Halloween kindergarten style!

My students are getting quite the photo taking experts! I love that I am not the only one in charge of capturing  what goes on in our classroom.

 We cut open our classroom pumpkin to investigate what was inside. Some of us were a little more willing to dig in than others.

 We cleaned out the seeds and placed them in coffee filters by groups of ten.

 Mrs. Ingram came to read to us for RIFF.  We enjoyed all of her farm themed books and getting to pick out a new book to take home.

 We reviewed our sight words by hunting for them in the newspaper!

Oh..just hanging out in the sunshine!

The weather was beautiful a couple of days this week.  We packed up our snack and headed outdoors.  This will not be happening much longer.

We played sight word memory.

We practiced our numbers by making "ghost" on a ten frame. (lima beans with faces on them)

 We made cards for a faculty members daughter who is in serving in the military.

We practiced writing our sight words in a "ghostly" way!

The following pictures were taken at our Fall Harvest party.  A big thanks to all the parents who came and helped out and who sent in items. It was a huge success!

Our Pumpkin Patch Fieldtrip

We had a wonderful time at the pumpkin patch.  The weather was beautiful and it was the perfect day to pick out a pumpkin. Thank you to all the parents who came to lend a helping hand.
