Thank you all for the flowers this morning!! The kids were so excited to bring them in!
Morning work this morning we colored a flag and discussed the American Flag. We watched a video that showed the flag throughout the years.
We then had our morning board time and sing a long with the rest of Kindergarten!
We had two center rotations today to finish out the week! Following centers we listened to two books on tape! Next was lunch
Following lunch we listened to several non fiction books from the IDOE Summer Reading webpage!
In Math today we discussed in depth the addition and subtraction boxes. This took some time, but the kids all seemed to understand. We solved all the addition and subtraction problems together.
Next we worked on some subtraction skills and strategies.
We finished our day with recess and a discussion about Memorial Day. We discussed why we celebrate Memorial Day and listened to a book all about the Holiday. Each of the kids got their own American flag to take home and show on Memorial Day!!!

We finished our day with Art!

I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! Please remind your children of the true meaning for Memorial Day and to honor all American Veterans who have defended Freedom over the years!!!!

Happy Memorial Day!
