This week in Kindergarten!
Our poem this week was Money Money. We made movements, glued the poem into our poetry notebooks, completed a poetry page, and recorded the poem for seesaw.
Our read aloud was The Gruffalo. We practiced visualizing, retelling, making inferences, studying our main character, telling our favorite part, and answering questions.
In writing, they got their nonfiction webs that they completed for homework and started to turn them into an All About book. Soon, they will be researching animals all on their own!
For math, we started unit 6. In this unit your child will identify, name, and describe objects in the environment using the names of shapes, explore the difference between 2D and 3D shapes, build 3D shapes, understand the numbers from 11-20 as "10 and some more", and solve number combinations within 10.
In guidance, we talked about calming down strong feelings. We talked about what a strong feeling was, how to recognize a strong feeling, how to take belly breathes, and other ways we can calm down.
This week we did a 5 day STEM curriculum called Rokenbok. It is like big legos and each day they have a challenge they need to plan, build, and solve. They loved Rokenbok's!
