Field Day!

 We had tons of fun on our Field Day!  We were team yellow and because I have such amazing kids, I let them tie-dye their own shirts!  It went off without anyone getting dye on them! SUCCESS!

GO TEAM YELLOW!!!

Career Day!

Yesterday was our Career Day! 

We were very fortunate to have a baker and a letter carrier visit us!

The baker made yummy red velvet cupcakes us and we decorated our own cupcakes!!  Those cupcakes were Y-U-M-M-Y!

Then we had a letter carrier visit us!  He showed us all his different uniforms he wears for all the different types of weather.  He let us hold his postal bags (which can weigh upto 25 pounds) and gave us coloring books!

Check out our caterpillar making its chrysalis!

"March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb"

Prior to the month of March, we  made predictions if whether March will come in like a lion and out like a lamb or vice versa and also if we will have more lion or lamb days.

Lion days are cold and windy and

Lamb day are calm and warm.

After we made our predictions, we made a calendar and then made lions with fruit loop cereal and lambs with cotton balls! 

One Fish - Two Fish - Red Fish - Blue Fish!

To continue with our Dr Seuss theme, we read "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish."  We first made 4 different patterns of fish.  Then we used the Goldfish Colors to graph the fish that are in our little container.  Afterwards, we tallied our results.  And lastly we ate all our fish (they really enjoyed that part)!

Look at their new writing pieces!

So it is my first day back since my fall and my Kinder Kids, once again, astonished me!

They are learning to use descriptive words as well as verbs!  I only wrote two words on the board (kite and flying) and they did the rest by looking in their Word Buddy and searching around the room!

There's a Wocket in My Pocket!

In celebrating Dr. Seuss all month, our first activity involves the book There's a Wocket in My Pocket!

We used the ending -ocket to make a silly word just like Dr. Seuss! Then we made our own strange -ocket!

Once again - these Kinder Kids made magic!
