Today is the one hundredth sixty-ninth day of Kindergarten for my little friends. They were super busy today, and didn't have time to write their blog.

Today, when they got to school, the colored a picture of the Chilean flower. It is called a Copihue. We found out from Ms. Espinoza, who is from Chile, that it is an honor to be given a Copihue. We also found out that when people are excited in Chile, they yell "Copihue!" and then other people yell "Rojo!" We know that rojo means red in Spanish. The Copihue is a red flower. It is really pretty. They hang down towards the ground. We made our very own Copihue and hung them in the hall.

My friends are learning all about Chile, and next week, their parents will come to school and the parents will learn all about Chile and other countries around the world. Kindergarten is going to teach the parents about Chile.

We read a new book about dinosaurs. We are learning so much about dinosaurs. We really like to learn more every day. Our friends have learned that reading is a great way to learn more.

She will come back one more time tomorrow. We are excited to see what we get to do tomorrow!

We went to lunch. We were supposed to have BBQ chicken and grilled cheese sandwiches, but we had fried chicken and grilled cheese. Our friends really thought both were good.

When we got back from lunch, we had a talk about expectations. Some friends had forgotten the expectations in the cafeteria. We know they will not forget any more!

We covered Mr. Caterpillar with his cocoon.
He will spend the next eleven days in his cocoon, and then he will come out and be a big beautiful butterfly. When he turns into a butterfly, our friends turn into big beautiful (and smart) first graders! We are all so very excited!

We got to play at the park today. We love getting to go to the park. It almost started to rain while we were outside, but we got inside before the rain came out of the sky!

Our friends had a great day! They don't have much longer in Kindergarten, and they are starting to get really excited about the end of school! We are excited for them too, and are looking forward to what the next 11 days bring us in our Kindergarten class!

Day 87

2010-01-15T14:47:00.003-05:00

Today we were so busy, that Mrs. V. and Mrs. F. had to write our blog.

Today our friends worked very hard in school. First thing this morning, they wrote sentences and questions. During group they sang their favorite song four times. They sure do love the calendar polka song. We added a blue mitten to our calendar pattern. Our friends made a prediction about what tomorrow's calendar piece will be. They are guessing snowman.

Then, we all added another shape, straw, tally mark and sticker, and then figured out how many days we had been in school. Today was the eighty-seventh day of school. We have 87 shapes, 87 straws, 87 tally marks, and 87 stickers. Mr. Caterpillar has 87 circles!

After morning group, we read the book Flower Garden one more time. Today we compared the book Flower Garden to the book Bunny Cakes. We said the books both had birthdays and cakes and girls. Then we noticed that both books both have dirt. In Bunny Cakes the dirt is in a cake. In Flower Garden, the dirt is in the window box.

Then we had reading groups. All of our friends made good choices in their groups. That made us proud.

We went to lunch. Today for lunch, our friends had pizza and chicken. They are also trying to eat a vegetable and a fruit every day. If they each eat a vegetable and a fruit for lunch, we get to put a sticker on the chart. We are trying to get a sticker every day for ten weeks!

Our friends learned more about Martin Luther King Jr. today. They made a book about Martin. They listened to a story about his big words and they got to see a video about his speech with his big words. We don't have school Monday, because we are going to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. and all the work he did!

Our friends finished making their number books in Math. Today they did the pages for numbers seventeen, eighteen, nineteen and twenty.

Today we had a fire drill, and we got to go outside for recess. Mrs. White gave our class some really neat stencils for outside.

We all had a really great day! All our friends earned CATS!
