Blue day on Monday! Have your child wear blue as part of the Kindergarten Artists Color Day.
Kindness.....
We have been working hard on kindness. You may have seen some thoughtfully decorated cards with messages to you or someone in your family. We made pine cone bird feeders. We have our kindness jar that we put cubes in when we do something nice or kind to others. We hope that you are noticing some kind actions at home. Thanks for supporting this at home too.
Clifford's Christmas by Norman Bridwell.
Math....
Collecting items in the room; a glue stick, a block and something from our Kindergarten kitchen and bring back to the circle. We used regular shapes that we observed yesterday with our 3D shapes. Today we looked at things from our room and compared what their shape was compared to the 3D shapes.
We then played the "One less, One More" game. Beth held up a card with a number on it and the kids wrote on white boards the number that was one more or one less depending on what Beth called out.
Language Arts....
We looked at a lot of pictures that started with the letter W for, Wink, wag, wed, win. V for vacuum, valentine, van, vegetables, vest, vet, vine, etc. We worked on our letter magnetic boards. Find and recognize letters when the sound of letter was said, they had to hunt for it on their letter boards.
Practicing letter Vv. We review (every time we learn a new letter) how to make the letters correctly. Then we work in our handwriting book practicing to write the letter.
Outside Play.....
Wishing Mother Nature could provide a little more snow! But in the mean time, we aren't gonna let this little bit stop of from having lots of fun just as we would with 2 feet of snow.
Smiles and laughter fill these girls.

Snow Day by Betsy Maestro. "No School Today! Out came the snow suits, scarves and sleds And out come the shovels and tank trucks and snowblowers. While children play in the snow, adults work hard to make the roads safe for travel... until the next snowstorm."
Making Snowflakes..... We have been so excited to play in snow (as little as it is) that we decided if we make them, flakes will fall! So we made many snowflakes and have put them on our window. Maybe Mother Nature will see that we are very much looking forward to playing in some real snow.
And when you make snowflakes, you must discover the mustaches!
