How Many Pumpkins Tall Are You?

We have been learning all about pumpkins and have been doing lots of fun activities! In Math last Thursday we talked about estimating. each child had to guess how many pumpkins tall they were and then we graphed it. After we were done, we measured each child to see how accurate their guess was!

Mr. Thomas Teaches Kindergarten

So sorry I am behind on posting on the blog, we have been VERY busy! I am sure you have heard all about it from your child, but we had a guest teacher a few Fridays ago! Mr. Thomas and his assistant Mrs. McLaughlin came and taught our class, while Mrs. Lanier and I went and taught his class in 4th grade. We sure did miss our kindergarteners by the time we got back. Here are some pictures of their morning with Mr. Thomas!

Reader's Workshop

We have learned all our procedures and routines for Reader's Workshop and are really enjoying private reading time and partner reading time!

Thank you so much to all of you who have supported me in winning teacher of the year! Your cards and the ice cream party Mrs. Lanier put together were so thoughtful! Here are a few pictures from the special day!

Three Billy Goats Gruff

We visited Mrs. Shikany last week and learned about the Three Billy Goats Gruff! We went back for a second visit with her and were able to act it out using puppets. It was so fun!
