Working hard in Room 101

This week was another busy week. We focused on a lot of different subject areas including; working on our Fundations Unit 2. We have been tapping words and working on writing our capital and lowercase letters. We have started individual dictionaries. We also learned about Martin Luther King Jr. We read a couple books about him, colored a book about him and we did a Let's Find out that focused on him. We also reviewed the book we colored and added in transitional words about how to get dressed in the winter. We are hoping this will help our students (and us) when we need to get ready to go out to recess or go home. Knowing the order to most efficiently get dressed is a time saver and helps with students self help skills. (Coat, boots, hat, mittens, scarf). Going through the process of a procedural informative text will be helpful when the students write their procedural text for how to build a snow person. We hope the snow will stick around or we will get a bit more so we will be able to teach our 4th grade partners how to build a snowman- and actually spend time outside building based on the kindergartners directions!
