Rayna shared the book she made along with two of her favorite toys. We learned a lot about Rayna today.
Learning Goals-I met with half of the class to write learning goals today during free choice time. Each student had to tell me something he/she wanted to learn in kindergarten. I helped guide them in their decisions.
Specials-We had art today
Read Aloud-"Brown at the Zoo"
Shared Reading-"I See Brown" book

Rest Time-We listened to "Froggy Plays T-ball".
Math-We did calendar and calendar book today. We measured things with our body parts. We measured with our hands, fingers, feet and arms. We recorded our measurements and shared what we measured after we were finished.
We ended our day by practicing our Day 5 Alive song and having a short playtime.
