Kindergarten Happenings!

WOW!!! We just had a very busy and exciting week! We celebrated a marble party, saw the first grade performance, celebrated the 100th day, had a visit from Mr. Campbell & Mr. Zanghi, and celebrated Valentine's Day!  Here are some pictures of our week!

Happy Valentine's Day!!  

Another cool habitat built by William. 

On the 100th day, I posted 100 hearts around the room.  Each heart gave a reason why I love this group of children!  Here are some of our projects we did on the 100th day!  

 Decorating their 100th day glasses! 

 Making 100th day hats!  

 Making 100 dots for our hats

Each child counted out 10 strips and put 10 dots on each to make 100 dots. 

 Looking cool in their glasses! 

 What a great hat!  

 First grade performance.  They did an amazing job!  I love seeing former students and the growth they make from the end of kindergarten and halfway through their first grade year.  

 Looking GOOD!!  

 Wow...look at all these amazing projects!  We had donuts with 100 sprinkles,100 eyes on a monster, 100 hearts, 100 pennies, 100 pictures, 100 pac man pellets and so much more.  You will see all these great projects in the upcoming pictures!!  Awesome job counting to 100.  I heard that some started at 1, others made groups of 10, some helped mom or dad and some weren't really sure how they counted.  They did a nice job telling us about their projects, how they completed it and who helped them.  Thank you for your assistance.  

 100 day math games

 Race to 100 on a 100's chart using cubes and dice.

 Mystery numbers ~ A party themed object covered a number on the 100's chart.  The student had to figure out which number was covered and write it down.  They did very well with this especially since we haven't done a lot with large numbers yet.  

 Here was a BIG challenge that many completed.  Write the missing numbers on the 100's chart.  There were a lot more missing numbers than numbers on the chart.  I was super impressed!
