Penmanship: We introduced the letter Aa - formation and created a list of words that start with the letter Aa.
Writers Workshop: After practicing stretching out words, students were given sounds tubs for letters that we've already covered (C, E, D, G, A). They took items, drew the items, and attempted to spell out by identifying as many sounds as they could.
Social Studies: Today we discussed Holidays, watched the accompanying DVDs and reviewed holidays that we'd already celebrated (Thanksgiving, Christopher Columbus Day, etc.) and upcoming ones which we would soon learn more about (Martin Luther King Jr. Day).
As a follow-up to Social Studies, most children chose to create a Happy Birthday card for Miss Ciampa during choice time today. We presented these to her after singing her "Happy Birthday" in passing from Computer Lab.
Math: We reviewed the number 8 and practiced writing it using the poem "Make an S but then don't wait. Up to the top, that makes an 8."
Computer Lab: Today we completed more exercises on the Jumpstart Advanced Kindergarten program in the Computer Lab.
Science: We focused on the sense of Touch - discriminating between things that are HOT and things that are COLD. Students cut, colored, and sorted objects. This was a very successful exercise and students seemed to really grasp the concept.
