Worms are wiggling wonders!
Last week we read books about earthworms. During science, we looked closely at red wigglers. Red wigglers are one kind of earthworm. We worked hard to notice some characteristics of the red worms. We saw the segments on their bodies, and we decided that they weren't as big as the worms we find outside after a rainy day. This week we'll get to compare the red wigglers to some night crawlers. That should make for some crazy critter fun!
We had great fun during learning centers last week too!
We got to "write the hallway!" We went quietly into the hallway to find tricky math problems to solve! It was fun work, and the kids enjoyed the hallway learning environment!
We played a game called "Tower Power!" We had to read words on the bottom of cups. If we could read the word, we got to use the cup to build a tower. The most fun part was when one partner got a "crash" cup! Then the towers came tumbling down and we got to start over! Ms. Molloy surprised us with a can filled with really tricky words to read. BUT.... we tricked her when we read through them easy as pie!
We also got to make crazy emus after reading the books "Edward the Emu" and "Edwina the Emu." Those pictures will follow!
This week brings with it MAY 1st!!! WOW! That means our ABC Countdown will be kicking off on Wednesday. Here's how you can help your kindergartner participate:
Wednesday = A for All American Day!
You guessed it... wear red, white & blue!
Thursday = B for Bubbles & Buddies!
We'll have fun blowing bubbles and reading books with buddies!
Friday = C for Career Day!
Dress for the job you'd like to have one day! Don't have clothes to match?
No worries... we'll be CREATIVE too!!
Watch for the ABC Countdown calendar to come home on Tuesday. Don't forget to mark your calendars to remind you that there is no school for Kindergartners on Friday, May 17th. It's already Round Up time for next year's kindergartners! WOW!
Stay tuned and come back soon to find out more about our kindergarten fun!
