Dr. Suess Week

Our kindergarten class is participating in the National Read Across America Day 2010, which is celebrated on Dr. Suess' birthday, March 2. We will be reading Dr. Seuss' books all week long, and have some exciting things planned! We will make Cat in the Hat hats, make a class rhyming poem, estimate how many Swedish fish are in each cup after we read 1 Fish 2 Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, and will finish the week with our Principal reading a special Dr. Seuss book to us!

Please come join the fun, if you would like to read a book to our class, let me know!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Have a great Valentine's Day! I enjoyed celebrating with you on Friday. We had fun making and decorating valentines and giving treats to one another. Everyone also liked learning the history of Valentine's Day.

Superheroes

We are beginning a unit on Superheroes. We will be talking about what good superheroes have in common. We will each talk about our favorite superhero and then compare and contrast. We will have Super Hero Dress Up Day!

What is your favorite Superhero?

100th Day of School!

Wow! Can you believe it? Today is our 100th day of school! We celebrated by reading 100th day books, working in cooperative learning groups to count 100 objects, and finished our day with a 100th day cupcake!

What has been your favorite thing about school so far?

At my house, I like to bake cookies on Snow days! I baked so many, I decided to bring some in and share with the class today :)

What did you do on your snow day?

Snow Snow Snow!

Well it snowed and snowed here in Winston-Salem. How much did it snow? In kindergarten we have been learning about weather and how to measure and keep track of the weather. I measured how much snow we got by sticking a ruler into the snow. I measured 7 inches! Wow that is a lot!

                                            
      
You can measure how much snow you got at your house by sticking a ruler down into the snow on a flat surface such as a deck or sidewalk.
