I recently looked at my blog and realized I haven't posted since Halloween!! AHH! I looked through my camera and had two weeks of things we did in the Kindergarten. So here I am getting caught up on two weeks of work that we have been doing in Kindergarten. I apologize for getting behind!
This week the Kindergartners have been 'moving' around a lot! In Social Studies we have been learning about things that move and help us get from place to place. They each got a magazine and had to find 3 pictures of things that 'move.' They glued them onto our big classroom chart.
One of our sight words this week as: my. Our sight word poem was: My Toys. I had their name listed on the chart and they had to come up with one of their toys that they have at home. They had to write the sight word 'my' on the chart and then I wrote the name of their toy on their line. We went through the chart asking whose toy it was and they had to say, "that is MY toy!"
They went and grabbed their journals, wrote down my (toy) and then had to draw a picture of their toy in their journals.
Working on ABC Mouse during centers.
Color word identification during centers.
Stamping out beginning sounds of words during centers.
This week in reading our stories were about animals in different places and how they blend in to stay safe. One of the stories we read for fun was The Underpants Zoo. It is a silly story about the animals in the zoo all wearing different types of underpants! They each had to choose one of the animals form the story either an elephant or lion and draw/design a new pair of underpants for that animal. They were quite creative!
We coincided our Science with reading in learning how animals stay safe by blending in. They each got to choose an animal: rhino or zebra. We talked about how to blend in so others can't see us as well as why animals would blend in. They each had to color their animal any color and find a place for that animal to 'blend' in with. Here are some of their animals.
Our letter of the week was the letter Pp. We listed as many Pp words as we could. We listened for Pp at the beginning, middle and end of words.
One of our Pp activities was writing some Pp words in our pot!
Math Centers: ghost patterns
Math Centers: Candy Corn Numbers
Math Centers: Counting Cookies Game
Math Centers: Ice Cream Matching Game
Math Centers: Shape/Color Identification game
One of the numbers we learned this week was the number 4. I told them that we are going to make a number out of ourselves then I am going to take a picture of the number to show you them. Once they saw the picture they had to try to identify the number that they made and they made the number 4!!
