Field Trip
A friendly reminder that we will be traveling to Bird Park this Thursday, May 11th to enjoy a puppet show entitled 'Cardboard Explosion'. Please be sure to send in your child's permission slip and payment by Monday, May 8th (tomorrow!) if they plan to attend. Thank you so much!
X-Ray Fun!
A BIG Boyden thank you to Mrs. Deb Haskins who visited Kindergarten last week and showed us some super awesome x-rays! This was a great way to review the letter 'X' that we learned about a few weeks ago. Thank you Mrs. Haskins!
Curriculum
Literacy
Last week in Literacy we read the story Messenger Messenger by Robert Burleigh and discussed the question. "What kinds of transportation help people do their jobs?". We also learned all about the letter 'U' and were introduced to the sight words said, what, and was.
Last week's rainy weather was perfect for making word family umbrellas!
Math
We began Topic 12 last week in Math which focuses on measurement! We has a great time measuring with cubes, paper clips, pasta, and pennies and learned that these unconventional measuring tools are considered nonstandard units of measure!
We had a great time measuring our feet after reading The Foot Book by Dr. Seuss!
Science
It sure has been an exciting time for Science in our classroom as we just began a unit on the butterfly life cycle! The children had a great time studying our new caterpillar friends and drawing what they observed. We are looking forward to watching our caterpillars grow and change in the next few weeks!
