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!

Spring is just around the corner!





With Spring just around the corner, we learned about what spring brings! They wrote their ideas in their Spring books using adjectives about the season. Spring brings flowers, baby animals, and of course-eggs!  We learned what eggs are used for, besides eating, and also did some “egg” periments!

Is it raw or cooked?!

“Scrambled” eggs! The kiddos had to unscramble their sight words!


Ayli brought her chickens to school!

These oviparous animals are too cute!

Rainbow eggs, who knew?


We learned about what animals come from eggs and learned they are called, oviparous! After reading the book, Chickens Aren’t the Only Ones, we sorted oviparous and viviparous animals! Here are some fun activities we did this week!

Birds come from eggs!

Sting rays come from eggs!


A penguin is from an egg, but a raccoon is not!


Ee was our letter again this week and we focused on the long /e/ and vowel teams as in green, seal, seed. They learned about the “two vowels” rule. Here’s a fun poem we sang to remember the rule! (Notice our two new sight words highlighted!) We made a face on the 'talking' vowel that says its name and feet on the ‘walking’ vowel that is silent and read several long /e/ words!


I see two vowels,
I see two vowels,
I hear one, I hear one
The first one does the talking
The second keeps on walking
Yes, indeed! Yes indeed!


Two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking!

Check out these awesome finger flashlights!
The kids had so much fun reading their books and looking for long vowel words!



Of course we celebrated St. Patrick’s Day, but unfortunately those leprechauns were too sneaky and hard to catch! Maybe next year!!  Thank you to those who brought in potatoes for our potato taste test! Our class favorite were the french fries!
Our favorite potato dish bar graph!
