Hello Families! We have been super busy in Kindergarten these past couple of weeks. We have been learning about how animals adapt and get ready for winter. So far we've learned that some animals animals adapt by growing thick fur and some animals hibernate or torpor during the winter months. We also did an experiment to learn about blubber and how it keeps animals warm in cooler temperatures.
During our phonics time we have been busy "catching sounds" and really listening to the sounds that we hear. Mabel (the elephant) has also been helping us form sentences. This helps us with our writing as well. We just wrapped up our Show and Tell writing unit and will have writing celebrations in our classrooms next week.
In math we have finished our unit about shapes and have started talking about addition and subtraction. We've been playing some fun games to help learn this new skill.
Just another reminder that with the snow coming this weekend to come to school dressed for the weather! We go outside even during the winter months and staying warm is important. Kindergarteners were super excited when we got a little dusting of snow last week!
Have a great weekend!
