Happy Spring!

It's been awhile since my last post and we have been super duper busy here in Kindergarten.  I cannot believe that it is Spring already!! Bring on the nice weather! :)

Here are some of the things we have done the last two weeks.

One of our letters of the week was letter Jj.  We are adding jelly to our peanut butter sandwich. 

Ww is for worm!

Our leprechaun rainbow hats. 

Our third letter we learned was the letter Xx.  We turned our Xx's into xray's. 

In math we finished up addition with learning about Gus the Plus.  We then moved onto subtraction.  We were introduced to Linus the Minus.  

Building spring sentences! 

Our Xx craft up.

We reviewed words that had the Xx sound at the end, middle and some at the beginning.  We listed some Xx words and then wrote four on our giant Xx. 

Building our rainbow flowers.

We started on our Easter Bunnies.  Stay tuned next week for a picture of the final product.  :) 

We are going on a field trip!!

It's been a fun filled week for us - field trip week!!  We went to a play at the college Alice in Wonderland, to the park for some lunch and run around time and lastly we went to the planetarium.  It was fun and a great day! :)

We are here!!

This week we worked with the letter Uu again -short Uu and long Uu.

Working on some sight words!

This week we reviewed nouns.  We looked through magazines to find a picture for each type of noun. We then glued them to our noun chart. 

Gluing our nouns to the chart. 

Working on a Spring craft - umbrellas!

This week in Science we learned about solids, liquids and gases.  Here are our anchor charts that we used. 

One of our sight words: out.  We listed somethings that were 'out' of our room. 

Since we learning the letter Uu again this week - this activity went perfect for one of our sight words: under.

We colored and cut out some animals.  

Glued on our brown Uu, colored some brown dirt and then some grass on the top.  As we were doing this I had a Kinder shout out - Mrs. Bartling all of these animals live UNDER the ground!  - ding ding!  Love when they do these things. :)

We glued the animals under the ground because that is where they live.  We then wrote the word: under on our paper. 

They turned out perfect! 

Our umbrellas all up in the classroom. 

We started addition in Math this week.  The Kinders are working on some addition problems on the IPADs. 

Using our bug erasers to help us sort, count and add together.
