Counting to 100

Dear mom and dad of AM kindergarten:

We counted our 100 items today! Ask me to tell you how I counted them. 

Today we continued drawing our "life cycle of a trout" called the Alevin. This is where our trout are in their lifecycle right now. 

Question of the day: how does the Alevin get its food?

Love,

Kindergarten

I counted 100 plus I had 3 extra!" 

100 days as kindergarten!

Dear Mom and Dad:

Hooray! Today I am 100 days smarter! This is definitely a big accomplishment to celebrate.

We had a fun time today in the new kindergarten senior home! Some of us dressed up as if we were 100 years old! Thank you for those students who brought their 100 items today. If you did not get a chance to bring in a ziplock of 100 things, please bring them tomorrow (for the AM) and Monday (for the PM).

AM class: Mrs. Southworth and Mrs. Quilley worked with us today with robots!! Ask me to tell you all about this.

Question of the day: Finish this sentence: “I want 100 ________. I do not want 100 _________”

Dear Mom and Dad:

We worked on the L sound today and practiced printing the letter L. I need to remember to always start at the TOP when printing my numbers and letters. Ask me to tell you what the guided drawing was today!

Question of the day: what do the spots on ladybugs mean? (We learned that it doesn't mean how old they are)

Welcome back!

Dear Mom and Dad:

Welcome back after a 5 daylong weekend!

AM: We wrote in our journals today about our long weekend. My teachers are pleased with how we are progressing with our writing skills. We revisited what we learned about self-assessment. We looked at 3 stages. I’m stuck (sad face), Almost (neutral face), I got it! (happy face). We talked about what the expectations are in Kindergarten so I know for sure when I am actually finished my work to the best of my ability! Ask me to tell you what I wrote about.   

PM: Mrs. Quilley and Mrs. Southworth worked with us on robotics! Ask me to tell you about this. We are so excited to learn about dot and dash in kindergarten. In gym, we learned some basketball skills. Ask me to tell you what kind of passes there are in basketball.

Question of the day: How many ways can you make 10?

Love,

Kindergarten
