Look who’s Popping into Kindergarten!
|
 |
First day of kindergarten pictures!
|
 |
| Creating our Pete the cat headbands. |
 |
Pete left us a clue to follow in his book
“ I Love My White Shoes”, we followed
the cues for a tour of the school and
ended up back in our class for a
tasty Pete the Cat cookie!
|
 |
Getting right into a routine.
Stringing beads - great
for fine motor.
|
 |
| Magnetic fun! |
 |
| Pattern blocks! |
 |
| Playdough! |
 |
| Working with puzzles. |
 |
Our first attempt at turn
and talk. One person talks
while the other person listens
and then switch.
|
 |
We ended the day with a
freeze dance. Lots of great moves!
|
 |
Learning centre time
choice board. Each day
different children
Choose first. I try to do
two rotations daily in
the afternoon.

Our first art activity. Cut out,
decorate a rockin’ shoe any
color you wish and then we
added a few sparkles.

I use handwriting without
tears as we begin letter
Formation and sounds.
Here are the steps for letter S and A.

 |
Each day we complete work
jobs. Each student does one
job per day by Thursday
everyone has had a turn at each work job.
This work job was a Pete the Cat Puzzle.
|
 |
Roll the dice. Whatever
number you roll is the
number your color.
|
 |
Turn over a card, name
the letter if you don’t know it
ask a friend. Sometimes it
says sing a song. Move your
game piece up a block.
Race to the top.
|
 |
Color Pete the Cat
by color code.
|
 |
Oh dear… I accidentally spilled
a large container of cube blocks.
I asked the children to sort the
blocks into colors. Well done!
|
 |
 |
We worked on AB patterns.
We only had two boys present
so this is as far as our girl boy
pattern could extend.
|
 |
Some learning centre pictures.
The children are learning to
choose a centre and stay there
until it is time to rotate. Lots
of social skills occurring -
turn taking, asking nicely,
sharing, inside voices,
cleaning up, helping each
other, manners and so much more!!!
