Classroom visitors and Math games


Did you hear that we had a special visitor in our classroom?  We came in to find a spotted salamander resting on our rug!  We wrote a shared story about him, read books about salamanders and observed his movements all day.  What a fun way to start the week!






We practiced making tally marks with popsicle sticks, ten frames and dice.











 We are learning all about ten frames through lots of math games.

 
















Happy Birthday Mr. Fosher!







We turned dramatic play area into a train!



We have train tracks now to use with our blocks to build whole cities!


 We wrote a book about things we like to play in the seal class.  We worked with partners to illustrate a page.






Playing addition connect four.

Partnerships,literacy centers and word sorts












Mrs. Balanger came in to read us a very funny story called Kindergarten Planet!



 Have you heard about our reading and writing partnerships?  We are working together to grow our talk about books and our thinking about our writing!










 This week we are working on syllable sorts.








Reading from our books boxes!  We found a just right spot in our room to read with our partners.
