Valentine's Day - President's Day

February is halfway over.....where did the time go? 

Here are our bees for Valentine's Day.   Will you 'bee' our Valentine? :) 

Our February door decor.  They each got to decorate their own hearts. 

In Science we learned about the Sun and shadows.  

Here is our Sun writing craft.  We listed some adjectives that they learned about the sun.  They had to write their adjectives about the Sun in their writing. 

Our letter of the week was letter Gg.  Gg is for grapes. 

We listed some Gg words on our chart paper.  We reviewed our Gg words.  They decorated their gifts.  Afterwards they had to choose 5 Gg words to write on their tags to put on their gift. 

This week in reading we read lots of stories about Goldilocks.  

We worked with our vowels again in words.  We sorted out CVC words based on what the middle vowel was. 

We learned about Presidents this week as well.  We focused on our current president: Donald Trump and then learned about George Washington and Abe Lincoln. 

Here are the Kinder George Washington's! 

Valentine's Day Math.  They each got a box of candy hearts.  They separated the hearts based on their colors, counted them and then colored their graph. 

Their Valentine's Day boxes!  They all turned our adorable. 

The Kinder Abe Lincolns. 

Happy Valentine's Day!!

It's been a very busy and fun week for the Kinders!  The letter of the week was letter Gg.  

Our Gg craft was turning our lowercase g into a g full of grapes! 

Starting on our Valentine's Day kisses craft! 

Putting the finishing touches on our g's. 

Our Reading story was Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  We read six different books about Goldilocks and the three bears.  We compared/contrasted them and voted which one was our favorite. 

Here the Kinders are working on beats (syllables) in words. 

Working on our Valentine's craft for our parents! 

Our Valentine's Day candy heart math. We counted our hearts, sorted them by color and then graphed to see which one we had more/less of. Afterwards was the best part - we got to eat them! :) 

We put up our g's on our door. When they left the room they had to say a word that had a /g/ at the beginning or at the end.

Here are some of their Valentine's Day boxes they made.  I apologize that I didn't get every Kinder in the picture with their box. 

We did another Gg activity.  They had to color their gift and on their gift tags they had to write some Gg words. 

Working on identify what vowels are in the words and then writing them in the correct vowel column. 

Working with our sight words - they had to unscramble our sight words and identify what word it spelled. 

We read a book There's a Giraffe in My Soup.  It is a cute little story about a boy that goes to a restaurant and every time the waiter brings out another bowl of soup, there is a different animal in it.  They had to imagine that they went to that restaurant.  What kind of animal was in your soup?  Here are some of their writings.  

In Social Studies we learned about Presidents.  The two presidents that we learned were: George Washington and Abe Lincoln.  We don't have school on President's Day so that is why we did it early.  

Working on our George Washington craft. 

Here are our Valentine's Day Kisses all done! They turned out kiss-eriffic! 

Our February door decor. 

Here are our Abe Lincolns.  They had to think of something they would put in their hat, like what Abe Lincoln did with his.  The flap opens up and then shows what they would hide in their hats.
