This Week in Kindergarten!

This was a short but extremely busy week in kindergarten!

We started the week by practicing to print the letter W.

We played a math game as a group.  The children had to roll a die and remove the correct domino from the flower.  The first team to remove all of their dominoes was the winner.

These girls enjoyed the game so much that they played it together during play time.

Drawing a picture of our bedrooms.

Sorting cards according to if they rhyme or do not rhyme.

Friday was a very special day!  It was our Treaty Day.  The children got to decorate a special rock.

We also drew on the pavement with sidewalk chalk while waiting for our friends to finish painting their rocks.

It was a beautiful day for a picnic.
