We did our favorite movement song-The Freeze during morning meeting. We talked about a new letter...the letter Oo. We talked about it being an important vowel. We sang the vowel song. We read a story called the "Flower Garden". It was about a little girl (with Dad's help) making a special surprise flower garden for her mom. We talked about surprises we have done before. We read the story "The Gingerbread Man". We retold the story using picture clues. In writer's workshop, we made cards for Mrs. McLearen, our helper in kindergarten who has been gone for a week. In gym, we played Buzz Off. We practiced writing the numbers 5 & 6. We also played a dice game called "Dot the Dog". We went outside on a leaf hunt to end our day.
