The Start of Many Good Things!!

Well we have begun working very hard on Kindergarten Curriculum!!  They are really testing out their skills this year!  We have started our Daily 5 Reading program (watch the BEE Folder for more information).  It is off to a great start.  We are currently working on 1 of the 5 components to our Daily 5.  We have been working on our stamina for Read to Self.  It pretty much is like the title of it.  We find a spot on the floor and we practice reading to ourselves.  The students are already up to 12 minutes of this!!!  This is the most I have ever had on Day 2 of the Daily 5.  We are excited and really trying hard to read some books. 

We have spent some time working on the 3 way to read a book.  You should ask your child what they are all about.  We know we can read the words, read the pictures, and retell a familiar story.  WOW this is fun!  We even talked about why we do Read to Self....that is because first it is FUN and second to make us a better reader. 

Below are some pictures of us busy in Kindergarten this full week!  ENJOY!!

 Some writing center time before our day gets going!
 Working on our morning calendar!
