It has been a busy couple of weeks for us here in Kindergarten! We have been gearing up for the break with all things Thanksgiving. We spent time talking about why we celebrate the holiday and what it means to be thankful. We made our very own hallway turkey with feathers of the things we are most thankful for. Stop by and take a look!
Last week we took a trip to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. The theme of the performance was "Surprise Party" in honor of the 125th anniversary of the CSO. We listened to beautiful music and learned about many of the instruments. It was so much fun!
Levi's mom came in last week as our Mystery Reader and read "The Little Boy Who Lost His Name" a personalized storybook with Levi's name in it!
In math, we are continuing to work on addition number stories. The kids have been making wonderful stories to represent their ability to add one digit numbers.
To celebrate Thanksgiving in our classroom, we talked about how grateful we are for each other! Each student drew popsicle sticks with another students name written on them and wrote a kind note to that person. We spent time reading and delivering them to one another. Our buckets were over- flowing!
Then on Tuesday, Ada's mom, brother, and grandmother came in as mystery readers. They read "Goldilocks and the Three Bears".
As a reminder, there is no school tomorrow and Friday for the celebration of Thanksgiving. We hope that everyone has a wonderful holiday. We are grateful for you and your children every day! Be safe and happy Turkey Day :)
