Field Day Fun

Bounce houses, balloons, bowling...oh my! Field Day 2010 was a little bit muddy but definitely as success!

The Grouchy Ladybug

Yesterday we read and acted out The Grouchy Ladybug by Eric Carle. Here are some great questions to ask your Kindergartner:

1. Which animal or insect was your favorite?
2. Who did the Grouchy Ladybug visit first, second, etc.?
3. Why do you think she was so Grouchy
4. What makes you grouchy?

Teacher Appreciation Week

Thanks for such a special week! I LOVE my Horton plate! I will treasure it for MANY years to come. I told the kids that when they are in the 5th grade they can come back and look at their tiny little "Who" print.

Fairy Tale Ball

I am so proud of K5 for doing a GREAT job at the Fairy Tale Ball! They all dressed the part, danced like ladies and gentlemen, and remembered their lines! Thanks moms and dads for your hard work and planning. :)

Fairy Tales-2010 Style!

This was probably the quietest morning in K5 history! We listened and watched Fairy Tales on our schools new Apple iTouches. Today we learned how to turn them on, figure out which ear belongs to which headphone :), adjust the volume, scroll the titles, and select the video. It was a surreal moment watching them listening and learning...it just made me think of how when I was in Kindergarten the highlight of my (half) day was playing with sand. It amazed me how quickly they learned and how many of them already knew how they worked! I wonder what the classroom will look like when they have Kindergarteners...
