We Welcomed Next Year’s Kindergarten Class Today!
Mrs. Buck's update for May 20th 2010
We had a wonderful day today! Our Question of the Day today was: Would you ever want to wrestle an alligator? (Thirteen of us said yes; 2 of us said no.) After our morning meeting, we worked in small groups at Math Centers and had a quick snack. Then, it was time for Kindergarten Round-Up. We each had a pre-school buddy that we showed around our classroom. We told them all about what we do in Kindergarten and answered their questions. Miss Sharon read a story about Kindergarten and everyone worked on a picture showing their favorite part of school. Then, we worked on puzzles with our buddies, drank some cups of juice, and read books together. In language arts, we played a popsicle rhyming match game. Then, we read our weekly poem and A to Z books. Recess and lunch followed. After our afternoon read-aloud, we had Quiet Time and our special popsicle treat for Popsicle Day. In science, we read about the life cycle of a frog and put together our very own diagrams. Our journal topic today was alligators. We ended our day with Activity Time, jobs, and Junie B.
