Kindergarten Rocks!
We are on day 11 and what a difference a few short weeks can make! The kids are getting the hang of all the school procedures and rules. They are sitting quietly and listening to our reading, math, and writing lessons. They are even working pretty independently. We know how to walk in a quiet, straight line (well, most of the time). :) They are enjoying their visits to PE, art, music, and library and as I type, they are dancing and singing in music class with Mrs. Lanpher. In reading, we have been very busy learning all of our letters and beginning to learn our letter sounds. Additionally, as we read story books, the kids are understanding the concepts of character and setting. In math, we have focused on counting and learning how to handle all of the fun math manipulatives, like pattern blocks and linking cubes. In handwriting, we are learning how to form letters correctly and how to write their names using lowercase letters. Science lessons about plant life will begin soon, and every year the kids love learning how plants grow. It is going to be a great year!
