Hi Kindergarten Families!
Wow, the weeks are flying by here in kindergarten. Our expeditions are underway. We're learning about how a lot of the things we use (clothes, cars, markers!) are inventions! Our trips to the American History Museum were very successful! We are thinking of ourselves as inventors!
We continue to request expedition materials. Wheels have become of particular interest to the kids. Cardboard remains a favorite building material. Please feel free to continue bringing in any "building" materials that might help us during our expedition.
In the coming weeks we will be finishing up patterns in math. Keep looking for patterns in your homes, neighborhoods, and lives! After our trip to the Building Museum, we are especially ready to look for patterns in architecture and to think about how we eat breakfast after we wake up every morning.
In literacy, we are in full swing with word families and patterned texts. Check the "Projects to Try at Home" section for some ideas about what to work on with your students.
