Kindergarten Kids Can Think!

Wow! What a week filled with thinking, creating, and learning.
The children were excited to see our new interactive calendar for October.  
During this time we cover many language arts skills and math skills. 
Learning high frequency words! Ask your child to read their words and spell them.

Shapes- Ask your child their names and the attributes.  As you are out and about ask your child to find these shapes in their world.

As we read this week and last week we discussed the attributes of a book.  Author, illustrator, cover spine, title page, title, and fiction verses non-fiction.   As we read we are discussing the characters in the story, the setting, and the events.  The beginning and end seem very simple for this class.  The middle, well, we are working on remembering those events.  As active listeners and readers we are learning to develop the skills of retelling events in the middle.
