Sorry I've been MIA from the blog for a while. I've been busy, busy, busy! I feel like this year is ending very fast, and I just can't catch up! I just wanted to get on an up date you all on what is going on in the room.
So far 14/19 students can read ALL of their popcorn words! That is HUGE! I am so proud of all of them. Keep practicing with your child at home even if they already received their goody bag from me.
We have been learning about Earth Day and the desert habitat and on Tuesday our class will present what we've found out about the desert to the other kindergarten classrooms. Each class chose a habitat and will present three things we can do to help that habitat and 2 facts about the habitat. We have created a collage on a quarter of a circle. When all the classes are finished with their collage we will put them together and form a globe. I will post pictures of our presentation. The collage and facts will be on display for the science fair.
On Thursday we will take a trip to the WVU Farm. I haven't even had a chance to start my farm unit because of things moving so fast.
Next week we will begin a butterfly unit that I'm really excited about! The Spanish teacher and I will be working together to teach the class about the migration of the monarch butterflies. We will even be video chatting with a classroom in Mexico! And of course we'll have our own monarch larvae in our classroom to observe.
After that we will be working on graduation stuff. I don't think that the other kindergarten classrooms have graduation, so it won't be a huge event, but I'd love to do it for all of you and my class. They deserve to be recognized for all of their accomplishments! I have to say, and maybe I'm just bias, but all of my students have come so far. They amaze me every day at how smart they've become.
As always, please do not hesitate to call the school or email me if you have any questions.
