Grandparents and Special Friend's Day

Happy Grandparents and Special Friend's Day! We had a wonderful celebration with friends and family. I enjoyed meeting so many new faces. I received the sweetest card and candle from an anonymous grandparent. Such a sweet act of kindness. Thank you! Enjoy the sweet pictures!

We had a marvelous Monday in room 107! My KinderPals were ready for a full day of learning. We packed a lot in and enjoyed our second mystery reader, Ava's Grandmama. She is a doll and my kids loved her! Thank you for your time. :) We continued building stamina in writer's workshop, focused on writing and counting the numbers 1 and 2 in math. They worked hard during centers and reading groups. I am very proud of them!!

Happy Monday!

Hudson's sweet mom was our Mystery Reader last week. She did an outstanding job! Thank you for volunteering your time. My kids loved every minute with you. :)








Ava P's birthday is 9-09-09! She was ready to kick off the celebration last week! Birthdays are so special and we have enjoyed celebrating with her. :)








Tomorrow is her actual birthday, but why not celebrate a little early?!?! I love birthdays! We love you Ava P. and hope you have an extra special day tomorrow.








We high fived our 2 new sight words, like and yellow.








Check out King Austin's capital A's? Way to go!!





Ayah did great finding rhyming words in Hey Diddle Diddle. These "old school" poems have increased their ability to rhyme. After I tested a few weeks ago, I saw a major decline in producing rhyming words. We have really worked hard on this skill. Please continue to reinforce this at home. Thank you so, so much!!




We continued discussing nouns and labels. They have learned so, so much!

We had a fabulous Tuesday!

We worked on floor procedures. I'm not a big desk fan, so this method works out great!
