News of the Week—March 29-April 1

Well, we made it!  It is officially SPRING BREAK!  The kinders have been anxiously counting down the days.  Take a peek at what happened this week in kindergarten.

POPCORN WORDS:  A week of review

WRITING:  This week we complied facts about bears onto a large chart and referred to that chart throughout the week.  We organized our facts onto our individual “have, can, are” papers.  As we wrote our informational booklets we asked ourselves “What else can I add?” by remembering what writers and illustrators do…write words and drawing matching detailed, labeled pictures.  The kinders did a great job writing their All About Bears books.

FAIRY TALES—-GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS:  We read MANY stories of The Three Bears…the ‘original’ versions, along with others like Goldilocks and the 3 Hares, Tackylocks and  Goldi Rocks and the Three Bears.  We practiced using different words to describe Goldilocks. For example she had yellow hair, she was naughty, curious, she was rude and likes porridge.  We used the Shape Go map during retell, focusing on what happened in the beginning, the middle and the end of story.  We had fun retelling the story using puppets.  

MATH:  We worked on learning more about number partners of 10 using stars in the night sky, practiced telling story problems with drawings and worked with teen numbers. We had fun finding number partners of 10 using jelly beans in an Easter Basket.

READING: We learned that readers can add an ending to a nonfiction book. Some non-fiction books just end, others invite readers to do something.  Readers can notice & use their nonfiction FEATURE POWER. This power helps us gather even more information about our book. Non-fiction illustrators use bold words, labels and headings to highlight specific facts too.

LITERACY/PHONICS: We worked on …. 

  • writing and reading CVCe words (consonant-vowel-consonant-silent e)
  • writing and reading CVC words (consonant-vowel-consonant)
  • identifying ST and BR blends
  • reading and finding popcorn words in Goldilocks and the 3 Bears story

KOOL KINDER AND THE SURPRISE BAG:  The items this week were: a stuffed dog, glow in the dark bat and LOL doll.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SAWYER

In between our “regular” learning  this week we squeezed in some fun by….going on an Easter Egg hunt on our playground and by decorating an egg.  The kinders decorated an egg before it was taped to the seat of their chair.  It was the kinders’ responsibility to keep their egg warm by sitting on it while waiting for it to hatch.  Throughout the day on Thursday, the eggs began to hatch chicks….PEEPS chicks that is.  What a lot of fun it was when the kinders realized their egg had hatched.  You just have to LOVE kinder humor and excitement! 

REMINDERS

  • Bring 2 snacks each day to school and a water bottle with a spill proof lid please.

News of the Week—March 22-26

POPCORN WORDS:  AS    HAS   

MATH:  We reviewed various math concepts such as solving addition & subtraction problems, drawing & writing partner equations for story problems, identifying 3D shapes, writing number partner equations, drawing tens & extra ones for teen numbers on Monday.  On Tuesday, the kinders worked inside their “office spaces” to take the Unit #4 test.  These tests will come home soon.  We began Unit #5 by telling math stories and drawing scenes with teen numbers. We looked for partners of 10 by using Stars in the Night sky.  We solved addition problems by cracking open Easter eggs and rolling a giant die to find partners of 6. We ended the week by playing a fun game called BUNNY HOP.  The kinders LOVED hopping out addition equations to find the answer.

WRITING:  We began a new style of writing….NON FICTION. We read a collection of non-fictional books about pigs and located many interesting facts to write on our chart paper.  We used this information to help us write our information writings All About Pigs.  The kinders are beginning to use spaces between words, popcorn words and sentence stoppers with more regularity.  Hooray for them!

FAIRY TALES:  THE THREE LITTLE PIGS:  We also read the classic story The Three LIttle Pigs as well as some books with a twist The True Story of the Three Little Pigs, The Three Horrid Pigs and the Big Friendly Wolf and The Three Little Pigs and the somewhat bad pig.  Of course we needed to practice our retelling skills by creating props (character puppets and the straw, stick and brick houses out of a milk carton!) so that your kinder can tell you the story at home. We sang this fun song (using my CD) frequently this week. I found it on YouTube so that you can enjoy it at home. Here is the link to The 3 Little Pigs Blues by Greg and Steve.They also practiced reading popcorn words by playing RUN, PIGGY, RUN. Look for this game inside your kinder’s folder.

READING: We started a new reading unit learning about non-fiction books.  The kinders first reviewed what fiction and non-fiction books are.  Then they learned that reading non-fiction books isn’t that different from fiction books. Readers look closely, ask questions, point and talk so that they become experts on topics. Readers also ask questions, just like reporters do by saying  “This just in…”.  The kinders had fun practicing this after we read a Let’s Find Out newspaper about beavers.  We said “This newspaper was mostly about how beavers build their homes.  One example was……….”  Have fun listening to your reporter give you some facts at home!

LITERACY/PHONICS:  We practiced writing CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words, unscrambling sight words and reading sight words, We learned that rhyming words are sometimes spelled the same at the end. Word part power can help us hear and see what is the same in a tricky word so that we can read and write them. Example: hop, top, stop, flop.

KOOL KINDER AND THE SURPRISE BAG:  The items this week were: a football, Biscuit the dog, a pet cage, a motorcycle and a parrot

USING OUR 5 SENSES:  We reviewed what our 5 senses were…hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting and touching.  The kinders were then asked to use their 5 senses to observe and describe a bunny Peep.  What fun!

REMINDERS

  • Bring 2 snacks each day to school and a water bottle with a spill proof lid please.
  • Return take home books and library books on Wednesday
  • Watch the weather. Please keep in mind that even though the season is spring, some days will be wet and rainy and maybe snowy :(.  Please continue to send a hat and mittens, along with a coat, with your kinder. Boots are not needed unless it snows or rains. Thanks! :)

  • MONTHLY CALENDARS:  The APRIL calendar can be found under CALENDARS at the top of our blog.  It lists birthdays, events, and more.  Please take time to read it.  I also sent home a paper copy today. Here is the link to the April lunch menu.
  • WEEKLY HOMEWORK:  The subtraction page was missing from the homework packet that was passed out on Wednesday afternoon.  I placed it in your kinder’s return to school section of their Blue Daily Folder.  Please look for it and return it with the homework next Wednesday!

News of the Week—March 15-19

POPCORN WORDS:     COULD    WOULD   SHOULD (as a bonus word)    The kinders practiced identifying these words in books, in messages and in writings.

MATH:  We practiced solving more addition and subtraction number sentences, drew teen numbers using a ten stick and some more, discovered 3-D shapes, and made a teen number book. We finished the week finding partners of 10 using a “pot of gold and gold coins”. They are getting so good at solving equations on their own.  I am so proud of them! 

WRITING: We wrote another persuasive paper this week. Our topic was cleaning up our table spots when asked. We gave reasons why this is a problem and then gave a solution to the problem. We finished the week by signing petitions that we will clean up right away.

On Wednesday talked about how lucky we are to know each other and be a family this year.  So…each kinder was given a friend’s name and they needed to think of one ‘nice dice’ compliment they could give them.  It was precious to hear the kinders read their message (in front of the class) to their friend and to see the smiles and excitement on the faces of the recipient. Some messages were: “I like you as a friend. You are nice. I like to play with you”. I am SO LUCKY to have such kind hearted kinders.  What an awesome way to spend my days!! 🙂

READING:  We became copycat poets! We listened to the poem Are You Sleeping? and then made up poems that sound like that one…they had the same tune. We had fun using magnifying glasses to look for popcorn words in our own poetry books! The kinders enjoyed writing them in their journals. 

LITERACY/PHONICS: We practiced reading and writing words that belonged to certain word families.  We also practiced reading sight words and unscrambling sight words, CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words, listening for the medial sounds in words and listening for the beginning blended sounds in words.  This was a fun busy learning time!

DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AWARENESS: This month is not only March is Reading Month in Kindergarten.  It is also March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. Today, our class was gifted a book about disabilities from the Fountain Family called Just Ask. One of the kinders at Georgetown, Nora, has a big brother, Joshua (a first grader here at Georgetown) who was born with Down Syndrome.  As we continue to celebrate Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month we thank the Fountain Family for helping us all become more aware and celebrate all of our differences. 

ST. PATRICK’S DAY FUN…We had a fun St. Patrick’s Day!  While we were at steam, a leprechaun visited our room and left his footprints, some coins, and a pot of gold…gold cereal that is! Wow…we were surprised! Mrs. Bohl gave us a fun treat to take home too!

REMINDERS

  • Bring 2 snacks each day to school and a water bottle with a spill proof lid please.

What is White Day?

Today we learned about White Day.  March 14 is White Day in Korea.  In some Asian countries, Valentine’s Day is celebrated by women and girls presenting chocolate to the other men and boys as an expression of love, courtesy or social obligation.  On White Day, men who received chocolate on Valentine’s Day are expected to return the favor by giving candies and gifts to the women. 

Junseo wanted to celebrate White Day with his new classmates today by giving them some candy.  Please see the picture below. 

What a fun way for us to compare and contrast holidays across countries.  Thank you Junseo!!! 

News of the Week—March 8-12

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR TAKING THE TIME TO ATTEND YOUR KINDER’S CONFERENCE.  THEY ARE MAKING FABULOUS PROGRESS AND GROWTH.  I WAS SO HAPPY TO SHARE THEIR PROGRESS WITH YOU!  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AS WE MOVE INTO THE SPRING, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

POPCORN WORDS:     WHERE    THERE      WERE         Please, please keep practicing at home!  Some of these popcorn words are a bit more challenging to learn and remember.  You are unable to stretch them out but need to just remember them by looking at them.  However, we do like it when some words rhyme like ‘where’ and ‘there’. 🙂

MATH:  The kinders worked on drawing and writing number equations, decomposing teen numbers into tens and extra ones (refer to the number booklet sent home), writing numbers in order, doing dot to dot pictures, looking for number partners and solving addition and subtraction problems.  It was a busy week for math learning!

WRITING:  The kinders worked on another persuasive writing.  This week’s topic was about lining up quickly when the whistle blows at the end of recess.  We thought of 2 reasons why this is a problem and then wrote a solution to the problem.  The kinders enjoyed creating a poster to remind us to line up fast!

LITERACY/PHONICS:  We worked on the these skills….syllables, rhyming, word families, medial sounds (vowels), sight words and h brothers. Mabel put on her cowgirl hat and used her lasso to rope the word-part of a word while we added new beginning sounds.  For example: -op to create mop, top, pop.

READER’S WORKSHOP: The first few days of the week, the kinders learned that avid nonfiction readers compare information by noticing what is similar and what is different in two books on the same topic.  We did this by looking at books about dragonflies and honey bees.  For example, we found out that the legs on both insects have important jobs. The kinders learned that nonfiction readers can pretend and act out parts of the text, just like they did with fiction stories.  The last few days of the week, the kinders started to explore poetry.  We practiced reading a favorite poem The Isty Bitsy Spider and a new poem The Swing for meaning and feeling.

.   

Kool Kinder and the Surprise Bag: This week the SURPRISE BAG was filled with a shark, a talking bird, a monster truck, a bird and a mailbox.  What great clues this week!

News of the Week–March 1-5

POPCORN WORDS:    HOME.  WENT.   ABOUT.       The popcorn words are becoming a bit harder to recognize so I can not stress it enough that practice at home is so crucial to your kinder’s growth.  We practice identifying our words many times and in many different ways throughout the day but your kinder needs to practice them at home too.  Thanks for taking on this important role. Your February flash cards were sent home this week.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR. SEUSS: We celebrated his birthday on Tuesday wearing Dr. Seuss attire. We learned that Theodore Seuss Giesel was Dr. Seuss’s official name and he wrote books under two names….Dr. Seuss and Theo. LeSeig. This is what we did:

  • Read Green Eggs and Ham, The Tooth Book, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish, In a People’s House
  • Read a couple newspapers that were filled with fun facts different genre of books.
  • Made a craft of Cat in the Hat
  • Solved addition and subtraction problems and wrote the equations using red and blue fish (based on One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish).

LITERACY/PHONICS: We did Dr. Seuss themed activities this week.  We worked on reading popcorn words, creating rhyming words and reading & writing -am real and nonsense words.  TIC TAC TOE, GREEN EGGS IN A ROW was so fun playing at school that you can play it at home with your board games and green eggs and ham. 

MATH:  We completed dot to dot pictures, wrote numbers 1-20, solved addition and subtraction problems, drew “tiny tumblers” that are tumbling down each side of the mountains  and more.  We finished the week by learning more about cubes and other shapes. 

READING:  We looked closely at non-fiction books. We started learning about how Avid Readers talk like an expert – they use fancy words. Using a book called Honey Bees, we found the fancy words pollen and nectar. We looked at non-fiction books and found WOW things and shared them with our reading partners. It was fun having reading playdates with our reading partners using non-fiction books. We spent time playing school and playing games with non-fiction books too! We finished the week with each table studying a topic of non-fiction books. It was fun learning all about certain topics!

WRITING:  We started a new type of writing— PERSUASIVE WRITING this week.  First we thought of problems we have at school and decided to write about walking in the hallway. Next we gave reasons why this is a problem and gave a solution to the problem.  At the end of the week we made a poster to persuade others to walk in the hallway at Georgetown.  Celebrate with your kinder as they show you their writing & sign this weekend.  This was hard work but everyone persevered.

KOOL KINDERS ARE BOOK LOVERS:

We have started another round of being the Kool Kinder.  This time the kinders will be taking home the SURPRISE BAG.  They will need to fill the bag with an object, write down 3 clues so that  their friends can guess what is inside.  So far the items have been a band-aid, stuffed animal named Dude and a Barbie doll.

SADDLE UP AND READ! is the school wide theme to celebrate March is Reading Month.  Each Friday will be various “dress up” days.  Please refer to our kindergarten March calendar that was sent home to see the themes listed.  

Each kinder that brings back their TAKE HOME books on Wednesdays will be entered in the school-wide March reading month giveaways.  Kinders will not be participating in keeping track of reading minutes on a weekly calendar.  Lasso a good book and have fun reading at home!

We had fun decorating our classroom door with Gingerbread Cowboys after reading the book with the same title.  Our hallway board is decorated with some cute cows.

News of the Week—Feb. 22-26

Welcome to March and the anticipation of spring.  We learned this week that the weather during March can be like a lion (wintery, cold) or a lamb (spring-like,warm breeze). The kinders made a lion or lamb based on how they think March will begin.  Check out our results….

POPCORN WORDS:    AND. GET

MATH: Number bonds were introduced to the kinders this week. This is just another way to see number partners.  The kinders did an amazing job working with this new skill. They were also introduced to Tiny Tumblers who live on Math Mountains. The Tiny Tumblers practice their tumbling all day long.  Some Math Mountains have a lot of Tiny Tumblers on one side of the mountain and not so many on the other side, but when you count all of the Tiny Tumblers they equal the Math Mountain number. These math mountains help the kinders learn and practice number partners. For example, on math mountain 6 there are 4 tiny tumblers living on one side and 2 tiny tumblers living on the other side.  (4+2=6)  Here is a YouTube video that explains how we use the tiny tumbler concept in math that you might like to watch.  We also practiced identifying 3D shapes, positional words such as under, above, behind, between, in front of, etc, compared numbers using the terms GREATER THAN and LESS THAN and writing numbers.

READING: We started learning about reading playdates!  We learned that avid readers don’t only share books, they are always inventing fun things to do with books and friends.  We used the chart below to guide us with our reading play dates!  Students were able to pick if they wanted to play school, play games or play pretend! The students had fun working with their partners and taking part in the reading playdates!  We also learned that really good readers act out the story in their mind, every time they read.  We are learning that reading is a lot like going to the movies because of all the pretending we are doing!  The kinders practiced reading non-fiction texts and talking like an expert about the books we read. They read books as groups and found things they thought were WOW about the books or moments when we want to ask questions, to learn more!

WRITING:  We finished opinion writing by writing about the topics of: 1. Our favorite breakfast. 2. Our favorite color. 3. Our favorite snack. 4. What we like about Georgetown.  We finished our learning by taking an assessment to show what we know about writing an opinion paper all by ourselves! That is called an “on demand” writing. The kinders had to decide on their own opinion, give reasons why to support their opinion and remember to write sentences that start with an uppercase letter and end with punctuation. That’s a lot to do all by themselves.  I am so proud of them!  I am excited to share these writings with you at our conferences. 

LITERACY/PHONICS:  The kinders identified sight words, blended and segmented sounds in words, identified final sounds in words and created new words by adding different letter sounds at the beginning of sight words (and, get).

BLACK HISTORY MONTH:  GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER This week we learned that George W. Carver was a scientist and inventor. He invented many uses for his favorite snack…peanuts.  Thanks to him, we learned that we can be curious about many things.

We also learned about Mae Jamsion by reading a Scholastic newspaper.  She was the first black female astronaut.
