Adventures of Week 2

Last week was another busy and fun-filled week in my kindergarten class. The students were finishing up on learning about pets and started moving onto animal homes. They were able to make an animal and also make their own fish and fish bowl. While doing this, they practiced using scissors, coloring in the lines, and writing. In math, we worked on addition and also introduced the official term in math called "equal."

Last week, I also did my first read-aloud. I read the book "Is Everyone Ready for Fun" by Jan Thomas. You may remember this book about the three jumping cows and the chicken from ED 315. The kids were quiet and engaged while I read the book, with the occasional giggle here and there. They were also eager to answer questions when I asked. This was a great experience and I was glad to have practiced before with you all and Ilene.

I am looking forward to the new adventures this week will bring. 

Have a great week!

    I love that you were able to use what we learned from Ilene and bring it into your field experience. I've also done my first read aloud with a picture book and made sure I talked about why I loved that book! I also showed the cover and made sure to say the title before jumping into the book. It's also so enjoyable to see the kids expressions during a read aloud, like their shocked face or their giggling faces.
