This week, students continued building their letter and sound knowledge while growing their collection of heart words or power words. They are learning to recognize and use a, I, the, to, do, and like in their reading and writing. This week, students put their new skills to work by writing about what they like to eat and what they like to do!
In math, we kicked off the week with an introduction to measurement! Students grabbed rulers and went on a hunt for objects that were shorter than, taller than, or the same length as their ruler. We will continue exploring measurement throughout the year in kindergarten math.
On Thursday, Mr. Weber joined us for math and introduced students to Happy Numbers, our district’s digital math resource. One of the great things about this program is that it meets students where they are in their math learning and builds on their individual skills. It’s a wonderful tool for differentiating instruction, and we’ll be using it at least once a week!
During ECO, we headed out for a beautiful fall hike, enjoyed a picnic in the field, and then made our way back down to the Den. We spent some time exploring and even did a little painting on yet another wedding leftover! What was once a seating chart has now been transformed into a display of gorgeous kindergarten masterpieces. 🎨🍁
