Good Afternoon!

Kindergarteners were asked to come up with three sets of rhyming words. We’ve been working with rhyming words all week. Last fall, we worked at the foundational level where children are given a word and they have to come up with a word that rhymes. Now, as children’s knowledge and confidence grows, they are challenged to come with up their own rhyming words which is much harder.

A few examples they came up with were ball/fall, fate/hate, and meat/beat!

K.RF.3.1: Identify and produce rhyming words.

What a fun time we had outside this morning! Mack, Franklin, and Sophia helped me shovel before the rest of the class joined us outside. They were a huge help!

There was enough snow to get the sleds out which occupied our entire outside time! We were able to get a slick track for friends to go down.

Sophia started thinking up new ways to go down the hill. We went backwards. We tried to kneel. Friends layed on top of one another. Finally, they tried to make a train where three sleds were hooked up together. It was amazing to watch them work together to try to think of new ways to use the sleds!
