Took a trip back in time to see a one room schoolhouse today! We loved seeing and feeling some of the objects we have been learning about in real life!
An expansive vocabulary allows students to communicate more precisely and effectively, plus it helps them understand what they read. What better reason to explore words!
Don’t mess with me. I’ll lock you in a room with Jack Hartman on loop.

We formed book clubs! Students made a poster about a topic to share information with others. Then their friends asked them questions and they did the research! These kiddos are amazing 🤩 #Kindergarten

Gotta love ‘em! 😃
Need a pick-me-up? Sit in a kindergarten classroom for a few minutes. They will tell you how beautiful you are, how cut your outfit is, how you’re so so smart. They’ll even count your wrinkles for you and remind you that you need to touch up those roots. 🤦🏻‍♂️

We discovered the main idea of a nonfiction text using this graphic organizer. It was fun to put all the information together! #kindergarten

Knowledge of spelling patterns and rules knit together the layers of the English language as students use phonology, orthography, and morphology to identify how to spell words.

I loved this book! Great story that made me shed a few tears. Thankful we have such a wide variety of books to pick from in our school library!

This is one of the reasons why I love reading chapter books to my kindergartners! #buildvocabulary

If a child memorizes ten words, then the child can read ten words. But, if the child can learn the sounds of ten letters, the child can read… •350 three-sound words •4,320 four-sound words •21,650 five-sound words
We used our knowledge of blends and digraphs to help us read sentences today! They did a great job stretching and finding the known parts! @RGRCompany #Kindergarten

We have started to learn about blends and digraphs. I noticed this student underlined ‘sc’ then I asked what the last word was. He said, “digraph!” with a huge smile! #Kindergarten #growingreadersandwriters

Don’t forget the drive-by food pick up tomorrow at WMES. Starts at 9:00 and goes until 11:00 or when supplies run out. Due to the basketball tournament, we will be moving the pick up to the SOUTH side of the building. ANYONE that could use food support is welcome!
