Happy Graduation!

We had a wonderful day today! Our Question of the Day today was: Are you excited about summer? (All of us said yes!) After our morning meeting, we worked on our self-portraits from yesterday. Then, we had recess and snack. Miss Sharon read Oh, The Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss. Next, we had our Graduation ceremony. We sang our song, received our diplomas, and shared what we learned in Kindergarten. Our celebration in the CLC was loads of fun! We had such a great day! Enjoy your summer vacation! Congratulations on a fantastic year!

Happy Yellow Day!

We had a super-dee-duper day today! Our Question of the Day today was: Have you ever driven through a car wash? (All 16 of us have!) After our morning meeting, we worked on writing our numbers in a scrolling number chart all the way to 110! Wow! Then, we had recess and snack. We all looked so bright in our yellow clothes for Y Day in our Summer Countdown. In language arts, we read a book about an Emperor Penguin and his new clothes. Then, we filled out our Memory books and colored them. We can’t wait to share these with our families tomorrow and save them for when we are grown up. Next, we practiced our weekly poem. Afternoon recess and lunch followed. After Quiet Time, we had Art. We made self-portraits using glue. We will color them in with pastels tomorrow morning and hang them up in the CLC for our celebration tomorrow. Our journal topic today was St. Matthew’s. In the afternoon, we got some extra fresh air, performed our classroom jobs for the last time, and read Junie B. Jones.

How Much Is a Quarter Worth?

Mrs. Buck — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 15:52:25 +0000

We had a super day today! Our Question of the Day Today was one from a snow day earlier in the year: What would you rather do: sell groceries or sell clothes? (14 of us would rather sell groceries; 1 of us would rather sell clothes.) After our morning meeting, we had Math. We reviewed coins and worked with the quarter. Did you know that a quarter is worth 25 cents? Recess and snack followed. In language arts, we read the story Madeline. Then, we wrote thank you letters for our parents. Next, we read our new weekly poem: Summer’s Here. Then, we put together and read our last A to Z book: The Busy Pond. Afternoon recess and lunch came next. We had Quiet Time and Music with Miss Elena. Our journal topic today was recess! We ended our day with an Extra Recess to celebrate X Day of our Summer Countdown. We performed our new classroom jobs and read Junie B. Jones.

What Is Summer?

We had a super day today! Our Question of the Day today was: Do you like watermelon? (14 of us do; 1 of us does not.) After our morning meeting, we had Writers’ Worskhop. We wrote two things we’ve learned this year in Kindergarten. Recess and snack followed. In language arts, we read a story. Then, we wrote poems about what summer is. These really had us thinking about what we do in the summer. Next, we used letter cards to make words and practiced our weekly poem. We finished our morning with a Time for Kids. Have a terrific weekend!
