Daily 5 Snapshot

We worked hard during our Daily 5 routine!

We made CVC words with Mrs. Iverson using magnet letters!

We worked on writing by writing words around the room!

We read the poem titled Sunflakes, brainstormed how they might feel and look, then made our Sunflakes!

We listened to reading

And we played math games!

The Christmas Party!

Thank you so much Jessica LaMore, Kim Babbins, and all of the parents who were able to come and celebrate with our class!  We had so much fun!

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!

We had a great time drawing Rudolph and making reindeer hats! We took a picture of our entire herd!

Gingerbread Theme!

We have been helping decorate the giant gingerbread house in the library. We also loved smelling and making gingerbread ornaments in our classroom!

We used 6 cups of cinnamon

               3 cups of applesauce

               1/2 cup of glue!

They smell wonderful but we didn't taste them!

After reading about the gingerbread man, we decided to bake our own! 

After lunch, our class discovered that our gingerbread men were missing!! We searched the school, and discovered clues that lead us to the office.  Thank you, Mrs. Combs, for racing around to catch them! Sorry for not including pictures of this... It was too special for me to stop and take pictures :) 

Christmas tree symmetry

We learned about the word symmetry, and completed a Christmas tree, drawing the symmetrical side that was missing! We loved coloring and decorating it!

Turkey Glyphs

Can you read our turkey glyphs using the key?

Firefighter Brian Meyerholtz

Firefighter Meyerholtz came to visit all of the kindergarten students. He showed us all of the pieces that go to his uniform. His entire uniform weighs about 80 pounds. He talked about his job, and told us that he learns new things all of time so he even goes to school.

Mrs. Hales tries on the uniform. It is very heavy!

Mr. Meyerholtz shows us how firefighters move through a burning building on their hands and knees to stay below the smoke.

When he has his mask on we can hear him breathing! Kind of like Darth Vader.

We practiced stop, drop, and roll! We have to be sure to cover our face, too!
