Good Afternoon!
Our two kindergarteners completed their sign in where we continued working with word families. However, today, we worked with switching out the last consonant of the word so the word weren’t rhyming words which made it a little more challenging to read! As they were making the new words, they sounded out each word. We’re continuing to work on identifying short and long vowels when reading words.
K.RF.3.5: Add, delete, or substitute sounds to change words.
PREK1 group came to the sign in board where we started talking about verbs, specifically action verbs. They each were given a sentence and they had to determine which action verb completed their sentence.
K.W.6.1b: Verbs– Writing sentences that include verbs.
This morning, we began painting our Paper Mache planets! Older friends worked on the larger or more complex planets like Jupiter with all of its stripes and spots. Younger friends helped with more solid colored planets like Mars and Neptune. We looked carefully at each planets photograph and tried to paint the colors, stripes, spits, craters or cloud formations we saw. We are on our way to completing our solar system!
PREK2: Today we read “The Family Book” in group. Afterward, we talked about how we help out family at home. Kids came up to the board and shared ways they contribute in helpful ways at home.
We hope you enjoy a few more pictures!

Good Afternoon!
Our two kindergarteners kicked off their day by completing a sign in that focused on addition problems where the total was 10. They each solved five equations where they were given the first number of their equation. Student S chose to use her fingers as an aid in finding the missing number while Student A chose to use the gem manipulatives.
K.CA.4: Find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number for any number from 1 to 9 (e.g. by using objects or drawings), and record the answer with a drawing or an equation.
PREK1 friends came to sign in where they worked with word families. Each child was given one word and a subsequent rhyming word that was missing the new consonant. We worked at reading their original word and then reading the new word once we added the new consonant. We talked about what word families are and essentially compared them to actual families: members share several characteristics but are different at the end of the day!
K.RF.3.5: Add, delete, or substitute sounds to change words.
Kids have been interested in making long chains with our “connecting links” puzzle this week. Today, we offered materials for kids to craft their own paper chains and see how long they could get them to be. We had a pile of paper stored from large group paintings, and recycled them into paper strips for chain making. Several kids chose to measure their chains when done. The longest chain measured was 56 inches.
We hope you enjoy a few more pictures from our day!
Breakfast: Kix cereal with fresh blueberries.
Lunch: Chicken/avocado sandwiches on whole wheat bread, fresh cantaloupe/golden kiwi, and fresh cucumbers/cherry tomatoes.

Our kindergarteners completed their sign in this morning where we started exploring word families. They each had two specific word families. We switched out the beginning consonant several times to make new words. They were both able to read every word within their word families—how awesome!!
K.RF.3.5: Add, delete, or substitute sounds to change words.
Our PREK1 sign in focused on identifying numbers that come before and after specific numbers. Each child was given their own number line and they had to figure out which number came next. They were asked to write their number or numbers and if they needed assistance, the number was dotted for them so they could get used to the way the number is formed.
K.NS.3: Find the number that is one more than or one less than any whole number up to 20.
This morning we explored a “bubble wrap painting activity” since we had two large sheets of bubble wrap to utilize. Kids collaboratively painted the sheets and then used paper to print the colored textures. Kids did a great job sharing space and respecting one another’s work even without defined lines.
PREK2: Today we read the story “All Are Welcome Here”. For our group activity, we each came up to the board to find our name. We counted how many letters we had in our names.
Breakfast: Whole wheat toast with butter/cinnamon and fresh cantaloupe.

Happy Friday!
This morning, a friend asked if we could get out the giant alphabet floor puzzle. It was the perfect group activity to wrap up to our “alphabetizing kindergarten FAB” which was part of the curriculum this week. Kids of all ages could help look for letters, match them to the squares, then put them in alphabetical order.
K.1.19: Learn and apply knowledge of alphabetical order (first letter) when using a classroom or school library/media center.
We enjoyed a little life science this morning, adding our first fish to the new aquarium set-up. It was called a “Siamese Algae Eater”. We learned that because it eats algae, it is a herbivore. We also learned that this kind of fish has a special role in the aquarium ecosystem, keeping the plants and rocks free of algae, and so helping to keep the ecosystem balanced.
Enjoy a few more pictures from our day!
Breakfast: Brown rice cakes with cream cheese and fresh pears.
Lunch: Ham on whole wheat bread, fresh cantaloupe/bananas, and fresh carrots/broccoli.

This morning the friends engaged in building with Magna-Tiles. A friend shared with Miss Bekah that she was “making a fan.”
We then headed into the kitchen to engage in the light table with translucent sensory beads and plastic eggs. We used the egg half or our hands to scoop up the beads.
When we went outside we saw lots of leaves! We used the rakes to rake them and Miss Ashley and several preschool friends raked the leaves into a big pile for friends to jump into. We also went down the slide and rode bikes.
Breakfast: Whole grain Kix cereal with fresh apple slices. slices.

Good Afternoon!
Our two kindergarteners came to sign in this afternoon where we sorted books based on alphabetical order. A group of six books were given to them and we had to identify the authors last name and document it on our letter sheet. Starting with the first letter of the alphabet, we sorted the six books the way a librarian would. They wrote the title of all six books. As we sorted them, we tried to recall what happens in each book!
K.1.19: Learn and apply knowledge of alphabetical order (first letter) when using a classroom or school library/media center.
During K/PREK1 group, we read ‘The Kissing Hand’ by Audrey Penn. We noticed that the author’s last name starts with a ‘P’ and a child immediately shared that a librarian would put the book in the P section. We’ve been continuing to talk about alphabetical order in group throughout the week.
When we finished our story, children were given their number card where kids took turns counting by 10’s to 100 if they wanted to. Most friends attempted on their own and a few wanted help from the group.
K.NS.1: Count to at least 100 by ones and tens.
PREK1 kiddos came to sign in where they were asked to find their name and array. Instead of counting the items in their array, children were asked to either look at the array to see if they could see how many items by simply looking or by adding the top and bottom row. Since each array had matching rows, most children chose to add!
K.NS.6: Recognize sets of 1 to 10 objects in patterned arrangements and tell how many without counting.
At the round table, we offered a counting activity. We offered three different trays that encouraged sorting, counting and categorizing objects. Some kids laid out the numbers 1-8, then added that number of shells or gems to each box. One friend put shells that looked alike together in each box, counted how many there were, then added numbers. There were many ways to practice sorting, counting and number recognition in this activity.
A child initiated activity emerged outside when a couple of kids asked if they could trace the leaves they found. We offered materials to help. They also tried leaf rubbing with the leaves they collected.
Please enjoy a few more pictures!
