This Week In KC

This post will share with a mix of different things we are doing in KC kindergarten. I don't know about anyone else, but I can't believe how fast the school year is going by!

Bridge Map
It's that point in the year, where we have to assess different things for the report card even if it may not be the units we are working on right now. I created this Bridge Map to see how the kids did with sequencing  and recording  numbers.  I love how they came out! They had to cut paste the number on the top and draw the amount for the bottom.

These are how they came out

Shared Reading Poem 
This is a fun poem to learn. I am missing on my class chart a row of Chip chops! We will highlight the CH's in the poem. We also worked on the OP chunk.

I know it says first but I did fix it! Thanks for the email.

Organization
Along with the new year comes some organizing the classroom! Aren't we always organizing??

 What Are We Learning Today?

I tried this lots of different ways but I think this is simple and easy. I wrote the words on sticky long white sentence strips. I just use a EXPO marker to write what we are learning in the different subject areas.

 These are different word families we have learned. At Daily 5 time I am just putting one in the house and the kids can come up and write the word chunk. Some days we add a new one, some days I just put an old one that we learned for review.

 I stuck these words on my white board that are magnetic. I was using it for kids to practice reading and for kids to take them down when they want to use it to help them spell.

 I saw this on PINTEREST and just LOVE It!! I don't know why I didn't think of this. 

 At the beginning of the year, I hot glued the clothes pins and they quickly came off! Gluing the tack on made all the difference!

I saw this in my art teachers room and I had to have it! It is a calendar that you can peel on and off. You can add the info with a wipe off marker! This is my favorite find this month. You can buy these at the Paper Source store.
