Last week was an exciting week in Kindergarten! On Wednesday, we participated in a school-wide program called Brainshow Mania. We had a great time showing off our smarts by answering questions in a fun, game-show manner. On Thursday, we were invited to see a play by Mrs. Laudeman’s third grade class. We were a great audience and even got to take home a souvenir: an animal mask made by our third grade friends!! On Friday, we participated in Read Across America. Students from Bloomsburg University came into our classroom and read us a Dr. Seuss book & taught us about the importance of reading.

Last week in Reading, we read the story “My Lucky Day” and talked about lucky adventures. Our letter of the week was Ll and we worked with the words are, that, and do. We also learned about cause and effect: things that happen and the things that cause them to happen.

This week, we will be reading the story “One Little Mouse” and learning about adventures that animals can have. We will be learning about Ll blends & words that contain Ll blends: bl (blue), gl (glob), sl (slip), pl (plot), fl (flat), and kl (clap). We will also be learning 5 new words: one, two, three, four, five.

In Math, we were introduced to addition.

This week, we will continue working with addition and learning how to write a number sentence using the addition and equal signs.
