Tuesday

We had another fun filled day...First we read  "Swimmy", by Leo Lionni, one of our favorite authors.     

The kindergartners wrote about how they can be good friends.  They also painted a piece of paper blue and then sprinkled salt on the paper to make it look like water....

We also painted our frames that we will take to Fay Bainbridge to decorate....

We decided to use our old bulletin board paper to dry our art on - but we decided to play with it first......

The funny thing was that those cute kindergartners kept working on their writing project...

Friday

A quick report on Artist and Author Night................it was beautiful.  I was SO proud of my kindergartners!!!!!!  Their art work was gorgeous, they had a folder full of wonderful writing, they recited their poems so very cutely, and the Fox and Goose song was darling!  I love my job!!!!!!

Sunny Monday!

What a beautiful day!  The kindergartners had PE outside and loved it!  We are thinking about all things flowers this week.  Jeffrey brought a beautiful one in last week and we watched it start blooming today!

These amazing, wonderful, smart ALMOST first-graders stayed very busy today...

 

Wednesday!

It was another GREAT day in Room 2!  The kindergartners worked hard on their literacy jobs - painting chameleons, making pop-up butterfly books, making a "butterfly in-a-bag" life cycle, and reading.  We got some stories read while working on many important literacy concepts, wrote in journals, signed a letter to Mr. Ande requesting another "flipping bar", and made new May calendar markers focusing on morning, afternoon, and evening activities.  We also had time for Reading Buddies - we went to their room, lots of recess, free choice and PE at the end of the day!

 

Tuesday!

We are so busy around here our heads are spinning...
