A fabulous first two days of kindergarten!

I'm so excited that I got to spend the past two days with this cute group of Kinders! I think we're going to have a great year!



First of all, I got to send my own daughter to kindergarten yesterday morning! We were pretty excited about that! I hope your child came home with a bunch of exciting stories like I got to hear last night!
We all took turns introducing ourselves to our new friends and then we took turns writing our names. I have to say that I'm impressed that everyone in the class can write part or all of their name! Woo hoo!








I read Pete the Cat to the class yesterday after lunch an then we went on a hunt to find him in the building. He left us notes in all of our fine arts rooms. He took us all over the school but we never found him!


Today I got to introduce King/Queen of the Day to the class. I got to be the queen and got to tell them all about my favorite things. Be on the lookout for my polka dot bag for your King or Queen to fill for Show and Tell!

We got to practice spelling my name by listening to the sounds. They did a great job by sounding out my name!


Then my Kinders got to draw portraits of me. They got it right didn't they?!😃





We got to start a fun way of learning how to write today as well. We will be doing Rainbow Write to help learn letter formation and help us develop our listening skills. They did a great job!


During math, we learned how to work with manipulatives. They were really creative with sorting by color, size, or shape! Some even made cool buildings and vehicles!





This afternoon they went to music class. They are so lucky to have such a talented teacher!


We've been busy the past two days, but we've had lots of fun! I'm really looking forward to getting to work with this group this year!
