Our Awesome Kindergartners

We completed our third day of kindergarten and our students have been amazing us! They have been earning many stickers and becoming super stars. We are also filling our popcorn jar quickly! We will tell parents all about these motivational systems tonight at our open house.

The students are also impressing us with their academic abilities. The students learned how to hold writing utensils  correctly. They were also introduced to the Fundations writing grid. We did some sky writing and then we practiced writing lines and the number 1 on the dry erase boards. We also introduced the students to rainbow writing.

The students were given a huge math challenge today to see if they could order numerals from 0-10 and then match dot cards and counters to demonstrate their number sense knowledge. Again, we were impressed by our students. All students put forth their best effort and many students were able to do this task independently.

At the end of the day we explored some of our math manipulatives.

We had another busy day in room 101!
