Kindergarten: Day 117

What a weekend! We had rain, snow, sleet, hail, a bit of sun and WIND; lots of wind! It was hard to get to sleep for Monday with the blowing wind and with the time change over the weekend. Ugh!

I got an early morning call this morning to come into work this morning. I worked in the Pre-K class and we had 11 kids. We did pledges, did an art project (made a rainbow with the kids hands), had music with Mrs. Seal (fun!) and even got to go outside for 10 min. to run around. The kids were great and all got along well. I work again tomorrow with the “Lunch-Bunch” (haven’t done that yet!) and the extended classes until closing.

Isabel didn’t say much about her day at school. She told me all about recess though. Her “best-friend” Nevan and her made “rock slush”. Isabel says that it’s a type of rock soup. They used pine needles, rocks, and water to make it. They used sticks to stir it all together. They mixed this all together in the tires (used to get to the monkey bars) on the playground. She said if they get outside again tomorrow, they were going to finish making it before “eating” it.

The opening activity was a dot-to-dot of a Edaphosaurus (uh-daff-oh-sore-is).

Phonogram with “ap” sounds.

Back: Sentence building.

Review of letters “Gg”, “Jj”, and “Qq”. Awesome job with writing!

Back: Fill in the missing letters.
Not so good filling this in, she wrote her “Gg'” backward and then wrote “Gg” for “Jj”.

Lots for kids were absent today, Isabel’s class had 4 kids out and my class had 3 kids out and the teacher. Hopefully it’s nothing serious and they are all back to class tomorrow!

Mrs. Boettcher let Isabel borrow a book again today. She picked out Dr. Seuss’ “I Am NOT Going to Get up Today!”. We are both looking forward to hearing the story.

After looking through Isabel’s paperwork, she told me more about her day. They worked with the die again, like on Friday. They rolled the die and wrote down the numbers they got until it was time to finish. Isabel’s paper showed that she got all 6’s when she rolled her die.

Isabel’s paper from her die rolling.

The class also practiced writing out their numbers.

With so much practice lately, Isabel has really improved on her number writing. She gets them all written down in the right direction. Way to go!

Her homework reading book, is “The Little Pie“. We’ll take 2 days to read it through several times and then return it to be tested on and get another one. Lots of great “sight-words” to read in this one.
