I look forward to each day as my Kindergarteners grow, create, and imagine. Our classroom is a place where we learn together and from each other. This blog will follow us and our learning adventures this year!

First days of Kindergarten...



We're already busy in Room 18!  Over the past few weeks, we have made new friends, learned routines, and took our first steps together as we start our Kindergarten adventure!  





The students had fun discovering lines and curves in letters and used them to write their names with one uppercase letter in the beginning and the rest lowercase letters.  

We read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom! by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault, a story about letters climbing up a coconut tree.  They made our own trees with their names!

We wore our "magical" glasses as we explored our classroom and searched for words.
so many words to read and write!

This week we learned how to spell and read color words. You may hear your child singing songs to remember how to spell the colors!  They made their first "books" and practiced "tracking"-reading from left to right and pointing to each word as they read aloud.
