Weekly Update: November 3rd-7th

We had a great week of learning in kindergarten! Read below to find out what we have been working on! 

Monday 
We learned a new lively letter. Ask your child: 

  • What letter is this? 
  • What sound does it make? 
  • What are some words that begin with this letter? 









Tuesday 
We did a guided drawing lesson to draw a picture of a fox. Students began the next step in journal writing which is copying words. When they were done drawing, they copied the word "fox" to label their picture. 










Wednesday
We practiced writing our numerals to ten on the whiteboards. 








Then we listened to the story "Ten Apples Up on Top". After listening, we practiced reading our numerals and representing their quantity by making sets of apples to match each numeral. 











Thursday 
We began our learning about patterns! We looked at some examples of repeating patterns in the real world. Ask your child to tell you some places we might see patterns in the world. You can even look for some at home together! Then we began creating our own patterns using classroom materials. We started today by making different AB patterns. 






















Friday
The PM class enjoyed their first Friday at school. We listened to the story "The Scarecrow" then we cut out shapes to make our own scarecrow! 









Next week is Fall Break. Students return on Thursday, November 13th. 

Remember to practice zipping your zippers over fall break! Our zipper challenge will begin after the break!!
