Our seventh week of kindergarten is over. It was a fun filled Friday for sure!

This week we talked about the sounds /h/ and /d/ as well as the words a and at. Next week we will be introducing the /r/ and /e/ sounds and the words do and up. Please practice these words and sounds at home with your child!

In social studies we finished our unit on school. The Gingerbread Boy led us on a hunt all aound the school today.

We will start practicing our address and phone number at school next week, as we begin our unit on homes and the community.

Kayla eating her piece of the Gingerbread Boy

Here is what our terrific kid Kayla had to say about the week:

We went to the book fair. We did the animal yoga video in movement. We made gingerbread men. Today we looked for him (the Gingerbread Boy) and ate him. He was hard to find. We made a gingerbread book. We went to the library and the cafeteria kitchen. Tonight is the movie. The week was terrific!

Here is the story of the Gingerbread Boy in kindergarten, and two videos to help your child share the story with you.

When Mrs. T. arrived at school, the Gingerbread Boy got away from her, but he left us clues to where he could be. We didn't find him after looking at the clues, but later he must have gotten tired because he showed up in our classroom for us to eat!

The first is the class discussing where they think he could have run away too, and the second is everyone on the hunt, and then later discovering him back in the classroom
