We had a GREAT day today! The kids were the best they have been in about a week so that was nice!!!
This morning we worked on a adding doubles worksheet! They all did a great job with this! I asked them to write a sentence and draw an illustration on the back when finished!
We had two center rotations this morning before heading to the computer lab where we worked on Odyssey ABC and 123.
Following computer lab we had language arts. Today we worked on a reading comprehension worksheet. We spent a lot of time discussing the importance of underlining and reading the questions before reading. We also read and re-read the story. We then went to lunch and came back to answer the questions after lunch. This was important because it highlighted the importance of underlining. We went 30 minutes between reading the story and answering the questions, but the underlined parts helped us answer the questions quickly without re reading the entire story! The kids did a GREAT JOB with this!!!
Following this we had ten minutes of silent reading. The kids picked a book and spent the entire ten minutes looking at it and reading it silently!
Following silent reading we had a hot pencils math assessment!
During math today we had Centers! We have five centers and the kids went to two centers today! We will finish up the centers tomorrow and Friday! We are focusing on addition and subtraction, and story problem creation and solving!!
Following math we had recess outside and snack time!
We got new seats today!!! I switched the tables around and the kids each got a new seat for the end of the school year!!!
For science today we started our focus on Birds! We discussed what birds do and how they look. We completed a sequencing activity and then took a nature walk to look and listen for birds!
We finished the day with a reward recess! I am proud of their behavior today!!! I know it is tough at the end of the year, but they did a GREAT JOB!!!!
Hard to believe we only have five days left of Kindergarten!!!!
Have a great evening!!
