Fun Times

Today was such a great day! 
So many of my kindergarten friends surprised me with stories that they are writing and illustrating while at home.  It is marvelous to see this hard work happening everywhere!
During small group today while we were working on our rereads I introduced the children to the reading phone.  WOW! Was it a hit!
Many kids wanted to know where they could get one.
Any hardware store.
Reading Phone
Our focus during small group reading time has been the following reading strategies:
It is so important that the children practice using these as often as possible.  
I am also working with many of my friends on one to one pointing when reading.  
Ask your child to show you!

During small group time we are working on high frequency words.  Currently we are practicing reading and writing the following words: a,at,I, love, look (the o's look like eyes and we look with our eyes), my, the, you.
Ask your child to build these words with magnets, write them with chalk on the sidewalk, write them on sticky-notes and hang them in the house.

Ms. Miller has helped the children learn about Kelso's Choices.
