So many new things!

We have been busy in the Lower K class. Spring has arrived and we've been working like bees. The class has been phenomenal with learning the sight words and word families. They are finding words they know how to read in all the stories we are reading.
Along with reading we have been working so hard on our writing. Last week we created a class story about the wind. We created a predicted text of "The wind blew the" and the students finished the sentence and drew a picture. I will post pictures soon of how great they did. Right now my phone is not allowing pictures to transfer so I'm trying to get that worked out.
We also read The Very Hungry Caterpillar and created caterpillars with our fingerprints. They turned out so cute and brought Spring into the classroom.
This week we only have a 4 day week so we will be reviewing all of the sight words and word families that we've learned so far.
We are also reviewing our math concepts. The students have done an amazing job with graphing. We learned about different types of graphs and did a class graph everyday. Last week we learned about greater than or less than by turning the greater than or less than sign into an alligator mouth. The students learned that the alligator always eats the bigger number. They are doing great! We have been covering Kindergarten standards since December and I am so proud of them and how well they are progressing.
Last week we welcomed Amna to our class! She is a great addition to our class and we are so happy to have her with us. Next week we will be on Spring Break. We also have no school this Friday. I hope everyone enjoys their time off.
