POPCORN WORDS:  A week of review! Hooray for the U.S.A!  This week the kinders learned about our most popular American symbols. First, we learned what a symbol is (it is a picture that stands for something). Next, we practiced identifying some common symbols for popular spots such as Dairy Queen, Target, Jet’s Pizza, etc.  Then we looked at some American symbols like The White House, The Capital, Air Force One, etc.  After reading a non-fiction book and watching an informational video about each symbol, the kinders labeled parts of each symbol and choose 1 interesting fac ..read more

POPCORN WORDS:   PLAY. AWAY. TODAY. UP MATH:  The kinders did a fabulous job being “office workers” while taking their last math test.  I am so impressed and proud of how hard they have worked to learn these math skills.  Their math tests came home this week.  We will continue to review math skills for the rest of the school year.  The kinders did a bit of first grade work and were introduced to learning about the parts of a clock and how to tell time to the hour.  They learned that a clock has two hands—one short and one long.  The short hand tel ..read more
