Mrs. Taylor's Kindergarten
First Week! August 28, 2015
Here we are on the first Day!
The class has done a wonderful job this week getting to know one another and learning routines and schedules. Kindergarten Boot Camp? :)
We learned about how to become readers and writers!
We launched two programs for reading and writing! Daily 5 and Writer's Workshop by Lucy Calkins. We heard many, many stories about starting school. We loved the "Kissing Hand" most of all!
We LOVE Kindergarten!
Reading the states to put together the puzzle
Working together is a big part of our social development in kindergarten!
Lining up in the gym for the first time
We have been perfecting this "line up" routine all week! Ask your child what their special number is!
Matthew is getting ready for "Rest & Read"
Each day we rest our minds for 30 minutes. We can fully close our eyes and sleep, or we can read books. We had one long napper this week on the first day! Most students read books. They were great at this!
We brought our ipads home for you to see our photos and our Alphafriends project on BookCreator. Be sure to have the ipad packed for Monday so we can continue! Keep good track of your earbuds and please charge the ipad.
We just can't wait for next week to come to have more fun!
Email Mrs. Taylor anytime with any question, no matter how small.
Next week we will practice writing our names with a capital letter to start, and then lower case. We have worked on fine motor control all week.
