I cannot stress how important it is that your kinder continues to read and be read to over the summer. Montgomery County Public Libraries has a great summer reading program. Here is some information about that...
https://montgomerycountymd.beanstack.org/reader365 We were super lucky and didn't see any rain during actual field day time. The kinders had a great time checking out all of the choices and then enjoying some popsicles.
The kinders had a blast creating our museum! (especially making the rules and signs!) Here are some pictures from the museum. During our class meeting we learned about gratitude. We read the story Thankful and then identified all the things we are thankful for. Here is our list... Then we watched Kid President's video about the things he is thankful for. You can watch it here. Today we went to The College Park Aviation Museum to learn about air travel from the past and present. We got to try on clothes worn by pilots in the past and present. We created our own airplanes and launched them. We had a picnic lunch near the airport and watched for planes (although none came). Here are some pictures from the trip. When we got back to our classroom we collected data on our paper airplanes. We launched them and kept track of which plane went the farthest. Here are some pictures from the the fun. This week we learned all about trees. We started by identifying the external features of trees. Then we learned what each feature does and how it helps the tree. Ask your kinder to tell you about the trunk, bark, branches, leaves and roots!
We went outside and made tree observations. We compared two different trees and identified the similarities and differences. We noticed that trees come in different shapes. Today we learned about coniferous and deciduous trees. We went back outside to determine if the trees from our observation were deciduous or coniferous. Ask your kinder to tell you about their trees! Today we learned a new way to show the teen numbers. We learned that teen numbers are made up of ten ones and some more ones. Here is an example from our lesson today.
The kindergarteners did a great job at Rose Hill Manor. The staff even complimented our school on how wonderfully we behaved and how knowledgeable we were about the content covered on the trip! (Just what a teacher loves to hear!!) While at Rose Hill Manor we rotated to seven different areas. We saw:
