Daily Five in Action!

  

WORD WORK!

LISTEN (and respond) TO READING!

WORK ON WRITING!

READ TO SELF!

READ TO SOMEONE: Sitting E.E.K. and taking turns "reading" to a partner.

We learned all about WRITING WORKSHOP today! We got to use and decorate the cover of our writing folders where we keep all of our work and tools.

We read, The Button Box, a story about a little boy who likes to play with all of the different buttons in his grandma’s button box. He sorts the buttons by the # of holes, color, material and design.  Children worked with partners to sort all of the buttons in their pile by different attributes. They loved looking through them and feeling the large variety of buttons that I have collected over the years.

Understanding syllables and parts of words is an important stepping stone in literacy acquisition! We drew a picture of our favorite food, clapped out the syllables and wrote the amount on the page!

(Look for our traveling class book that is circulating around to families!)

Hopes And Dreams For Kindergarten!

We have lots of ideas about what we hope to learn in kindergarten!
