Fun Day in Kindergarten!

We had a fun day in Kindergarten. Today, Caroline was the leader.  She got to help with Calendar and be our line leader.  Caroline did a very good job being our class leader.  We are talking about the Farm in school this week.  We are making farm animals in Work Centers. The group today made cows.  We learned that a baby cow is called a calf. Did you know that?

We are making a Farm Book in Work Centers too.  We sorted animals, tools and crops that are found on the farm.

Our letters of the week are Gg and Oo.  Gg is a thief because he steals J's sound.  We think he is a sneaky letter.  Oo makes two sounds because it is a vowel.  Octopus starts with the letter Oo. In Work Centers, we have to sort and glue Gg and Oo pictures.  We also have to write the word on our paper.

We also get to play on literactive on the computer.  It is a really fun game!

We went to the library for Specials. We got new library books that we love!

Daily 5 went super today.  Mrs. Deaton's Book Club group had an excellent time.  One group read a book about the farm.  The other group read a book about a baby crying. We also practiced our letter sounds. Some people went to the computers during Daily 5.  They played iStation. Adriyana practiced with the letter Tt on iStation. The groups that went to Working with Words had a great time.  We practiced our letters and sight words.

Journal Writing was fun.  We know we are all good writers.  We use our letter sounds to write our words. Today, we had to write about where we like to go. Mahala likes to go to the beach.  That's what she wrote about in her journal. Arianna likes to go trick or treating. Akshay likes to go to the museum. He wrote about that in his journal.

Math was great today. We played a number racing game on the carpet.  Mrs. Deaton flashed a number on the SmartBoard and we had to say it really fast. It was really awesome. We went to Math Centers too. In Math Club, we practiced counting on a ten frame. We also played learned a new card game called Top It.  Another group made an owl out of pattern blocks.  We had to count the number of blocks and write it down. Another group had to roll dice and color a pumpkin with the right number on it.

We had recess in the gym today.  This was really special.  We all got very sweaty.  We played with friends in Mrs. Stutts' class.  Today was a wonderful day.  We are excited because tomorrow is Friday!
