We did not even skip a beat! Today was amazing. :-)

A quick run down:

Both classes got to go to the library with Mrs. Bowen. She has the lesson with the kids. (Later in the week they will have an opportunity to check out books with Mrs. Sunderland.)

Mrs. Bowen is very caring and shares her love of books in fun and fabulous ways.

The AM kids got to have science with Mrs. Schmidt today. The PM kids will have science on Wednesday.

Recess of course is a big hit.

We started our reading with reviewing or learning about Polly Panda and the letter p and the sound it makes.

And we learned our very first sight word! The word "I."

In math the kids practiced working with a partner and counting beans. (They seem to be pros already.)

And we increased our vocabulary by describing how things are "exactly the same" or not and why. Love the way these kids think!

As a way of helping each student remember to write their name on their paper, they have to use a highlighter to make a line through their name before they turn it in. Not a single no name paper. LOVE THIS.

Our days are very filled, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of the Kinder Kids are as tired as me!
