Week 3 My Five Senses



Dear Parents,
This week in Kindergarten the kids worked on learning a little about the five senses each day!   We made a counting book on Monday by using our bingo dot markers to fill in a ten frame for the numbers 1-10 and played a partner game by rolling a die and counting to see who had more.  We also played a "Brown Bear Brown Bear" graph and count math game after reading the book by Bill Martin Jr. We practiced the Daily 5 by building stamina working independently in our Writing Folders.  We talked about the class friends we have made and posted our names on a chart.  Then the kids got to draw a new friend they had made and label the picture with a name from the chart.  We practiced "Read to Someone" where we are learning 3 ways to share a book:  "read" the pictures, read the words, and retell the story using the pictures.  We met with our Book Buddies on Thursday.  They have been so nice to help us choose "just right" books!  We ended the week by learning about the sense of taste.  We sampled some salty, sour, and sweet foods and then sorted pictures to match!  Kaelyn R. was our Star Student this week and we loved seeing her 3 favorite things on Thursday! 
Sincerely,
