5 Days!!!! Look what can happen....


We can learn all about the letter O!
That it is a vowel that can say "ah" or its name "O".
We made Oscar the Octopus who lives in the ocean.


I can give out compliment stickers for being good and sweet little kindergartners.
If you are not in the know.... each child has a chart in their supply box. They earn stickers from me if I catch them doing the right thing. When the chart is full, they get to eat with me, I give them a special treat, and they get a trip to the treasure box.
Sam and Izak were the first ones to do it!!!


We are currently studying birds. This week, we discussed how birds' beaks correlate with the type of food they eat. The children were given a clothespin (similar to a parrots beak) , a Popsicle stick (comparable to a hummingbirds' long slender beak) and marshmallows to eat. They quickly discovered that a clothespin made a better beak for eating marshmallows.


We discussed pattern making and worked together as teams
to make AB patterns and ABB patterns...






And because we were in school for 5 straight days, we were able to have a little wrist band time and explore around the room.

Being caught putting on a puppet show...
Future actresses???


Building a quite impressive structure...
future architects maybe?
