January 15

Hello all! It is hard to believe that we are halfway through January AND halfway through the school year. The quarter ends on Monday 1/23/12. The year is going so quickly and I am enjoying each day with my wonderful kindergarten kiddos! We have been completing our quarterly assessments and I am so impressed with each student's growth since the beginning of the year. They have all been working so hard and I am incredibly proud of each and every student!

This past week we began to focus on comparing weight using a pan balance. We learned that when things are heavy the pan goes down and when things are light the pan goes up. We also studied plot--what happens in a story. The students and I made up a cheer which they enjoyed. The class also studied verbs this week. We asked ourselves, "Can you do it?" If the answer was yes, then it is a verb! The students had a good time demonstrating their knowledge of verbs, as we marched, jumped, hopped, skipped and tiptoed through the classroom!
