Mickey Mouse Day - Letter Mm

It's Mickey Mouse Day!

 While studying the letter Mm, we created mouse ears, wore Mickey mouse clothing, discussed adjectives that describe Mickey, and wrote about what what we would do with Mickey if we had the chance.  :)

Position Words - Using There's a Wocket in my Pocket by Dr. Suess



We're studying Position Words.  What better way to help it sink in than to incorporate some literature.  We read and listened to Wacky Wednesday and Hop on Pop today.  The students used position words to describe where items were in the illustrations.  The following day, we read There's a Wocket in My Pocket.  The students showed me a thumbs up every time they heard a position word; this is GREAT formative assessment.  Next, we created our own 'wockets' and placed them all over the room.  Each pair had the use position words to 'find' and describe where the wocket was hiding.  












Miss Bindergarten Takes a Fieldtrip with Kindergarten - Community Helpers

We've been studying community helpers!

We can name, illustrate, and explain what different community helpers do.





 I used this activity as an introduction to nouns.  We'll be hitting it hard next week.





 There are some gorgeous afternoons here in Tennessee.  Why not take our writing outside?
