What's new this week in Kindergarten?!? Read ahead to find out...
Reader's Workshop: We are finishing up our literacy theme called Down on the Farm that focuses on farm animals. In reading, we are discussing how to draw conclusions. Our aplhafriend this week is Iggy Iguana and we are focusing on the letter Ii. Our new sight words for the week are: will/with.
Science Workshop: We are wrapping up our studies on the patterns of Day and Night this week. 
Writers Workshop: I have introduced students to the new genre of Response to Literature. This week each child began a retelling about one of their favorite books.
Math Workshop: We began a new unit of Shapes and Spatial Reasoning last week. We have been focusing on three-dimensional shapes. In this new unit we have gone a a shape hunt and learned a variety of new games and lessons that focus on the relationships between shapes.
