Shaving Cream Writing!!

Today has been a very fun Friday!!  We got to draw pictures and write words with shaving cream.  It was a lot of fun!  First, Mrs. Deaton had us sit in our chairs at our tables.  If we had long sleeves on, we had to roll them up.  Then, we had to put our hands in our laps.  Mrs. Deaton walked around the room and squirted a little bit of shaving cream on everyone's table.  When she said "go", we got to spread it out like a piece of paper.  Mrs. Deaton called out words for us to write with our fingers in the shaving cream.  One word we wrote was "like".  After we practiced some sight words, Mrs. Deaton let us draw pictures.  We drew snowmen, sunshines, people and dogs.  This activity was really silly and a lot of fun!  After we made a huge mess, we had to wash our hands and clean the tables.  Everyone worked together like a team to clean up.  We wiped the tables together and cleaned the room!

This week was a lot of fun and we learned a lot of cool things. In Math, we worked on making teen numbers on our ten frames. In Letterland, we practiced blending sounds to make words. This week, we also talked about different kinds of weather.  Yesterday, we learned all about the water cycle. We read a book, watched a BrainpopJr. video and researched the water cycle on the Internet. It was cool because we got to learn all about water evaporating and then coming down from the clouds.  We are some smart kids in Kindergarten!!

January was Justice/Fairness Month!  Congratulations to our Students of the Month in our classroom... Brayson, Ian, Allison and Brenden!

We are a little late, but Happy Birthday to Casey!  Her birthday was January 12th! Casey's mom brought us yummy cupcakes to eat during lunch.  We had fun celebrating her 6th birthday!

Another awesome part of our Friday was when get got to play in Free Centers.  We love to play with our friends and play with the toys in our classroom.  We are learning how to work together and be nice to each other.  Even when we get upset and mad at another friend, we need to work it out with a kind heart.  We are practicing being kind and nice all of the time.  Mrs. Deaton is proud of how well we work together and play nicely during Free Centers.
