Wonderful Wednesday

Today we enjoyed sharing our writing as authors.  We learned about how to speak loudly and clearly.  As an audiance we learned how to sit, listen,learn, and how to respond after hearing an author read their story.  We clapped, and we asked questions or shared comments that began with " I want to know..." or "I found out..."
Parents, you can help reinforce this at home by asking your child to read back to you what he or she has written while speaking loudly and clearly.  One of our kindergarten SOL's is using appropriate oral language.
During music with Mrs. Gordan the children learned how to sing and spell three letter words like, cat, bat, pot, dog,log, hog and wait...wait HIPPOPOTAMUS!  Ask your child to sing it for you.
They also review their patriotic songs.
