September

We are doing such a wonderful job learning all of the rules and routines in the Kindergarten classroom!  Here are some highlights of what we are learning about and doing this month!!

Literacy
How is everybody special?  Who is in our family?  We are reading many stories that highlight these questions.  Kindergarteners are recognizing that letters make up words and words make sentences.  They are identifying how many words are in a sentence.  We have read a couple of tales: stories that have a lesson.

Math
The first thing we had to learn and practice is how to turn the pages in our student packets:)  Now we are studying the numbers 0-5.  We are recognizing and counting how many in groups and writing these numbers.

Handwriting
We are going over some basic rules of handwriting: start your letters and numbers at the top, pencil grip, and the language of letter formation (big curve, little curve, big line, little line.)

Science
What is Science?  We will begin a unit on Trees and Weather soon!

Religion
God Made Us, God Made the World, and God Loves Us.  It is so wonderful that we get to incorporate God into our classroom on a daily basis!
