We learned about our first Daily 5 Choice: Read to Self. They did a great job practicing with, and without, their book bins. We were able to read for 4 minutes. (The goal is 15 minutes.) We like to keep our brains and bodies moving here in kindergarten, so we take several 'Brain Breaks' throughout the day. We love to get our wiggles out! We had computer lab in the classroom, and everyone was able to get logged into their Chromebook and play games online. This is such a big accomplishment so early in the kindergarten year!
We continue to practice Read to Self. We were able to read for 7 minutes. (The goal is 15 minutes.) To end our day, we used cars to explore motion.
Today, we worked on comparing numbers in math by using our math trays and number/color tiles. We worked in our Handwriting Without Tears book. We also continued to practice Read to Self. Today, they were able to choose a new book to read from the classroom library. To end the day, we built walls with different building toys and explored force and motion by knocking them over with cars.
We are becoming such AMAZING readers! They continue to work hard to build their stamina when reading to self. (The goal is 15 minutes.) We wrote about our favorite place to read. To end the day, we explored math choices.
