This Week in Kindergarten…

GREAT job with our “Learning at Home” this week!  I hope you found the learning packets helpful as you navigated through our google classroom’s daily assignments. Thank you for all of your flexibility and patience with our Kindergarten team as we maneuvered through this change in learning.  We are planning to return to in-person learning on Wednesday, Dec. 8.  However, with the current climate of constant change please be sure to stay tuned to our class blog and Georgetown blog for any updates.

Popcorn Words:  look, from, run.  The Kinders did a GREAT job of finding these popcorn words in our morning messages this week!

Math: This week the Kinders worked hard at finding groups of 10 in teen numbers, practiced writing numbers 1-10, drew shapes, learned how to use a break apart stick, worked on story problems, and solved addition and subtraction equations.

Writers Workshop:  Your kinder was asked to write a small moment story over the week.  First, thinking of a small moment that happened to them.  Then, telling it across their fingers, drawing it across three pages, drawing pictures to match, and then fixing and fancying it to create a finished small moment story.

Readers Workshop:  During this week of learning your Kinder was asked to practice their fluency, listen for patterns, change their voice when reading and use all of their Reading Superpowers.  We hope you saw some reading behavior that made you proud!

Morning and Afternoon Meetings:  It was SO GREAT to see your Kinders join in on our daily meetings!  I LOVED seeing them bring their cozy items every day and work with me on our Daily Morning Work Packets. It was AWESOME to see the Kinders engage in the meetings. THANK YOU for all of your help parents and learning helpers!!!! It makes my day to get to see them on Zoom!!
