What In the World Have We Been Up To: Week 9 With Nocturnal Animals

I know what you're thinking... the last time I posted was at the end of Week 2!  Yikes!  I honestly don't know where the time has gone.  And I'm pretty sure I've never been so tired in my life.  This year has just been a roller coaster!

I absolutely love my little kindies, but there are definitely some things I miss about PreK (daily dramatic play and nap time being in the top ten!)  Kindergarten is a blast though too.  Last week with nocturnal animals was definitely a "hoot!"

Here's a look at the some of the fun things we did...


All I can say is thank heavens for freebies from you friends!  :)  The Batty Beginning and Ending Sound activity can be picked up from Cara Carroll at The First Grade Parade by clicking here.


Another fun freebie to be had from Jessica Williams- grab her cute spider survey by clicking here!


The ten frames are from my fabulous friend Marsha over at A Differentiated Kindergarten and the count and clip it cards are from Pocketful of Centers.  The fabulous Roll (or Spin) a Scarecrow game is another freebie you can grab here!

I will try to be more on top of posting... but no promises this time!  :)

There's No Place Like Space: Outer Space Adventures & Friday Freebie

TGIF!!!  What a week!  I absolutely adored seeing my kiddos learn about space, but this week was a toughie.  Sick and tired kiddos do not make for a happy class.  Everything kept going the wrong way: food spilled on the newly cleaned carpets, bloody noses on the newly cleaned carpets, bathroom accidents during the middle of centers, pink-eye working its' way around the room, forgotten materials at home, the printer at FedEx Office went haywire and messed up my play-doh mats, the copy machine at work broke, I broke the side mirror of my car coming out of the garage... Yikes!  I was seriously scared to leave my house this morning!  :)  So here's hoping the stars re-align this weekend and my class comes back rockin' and rollin' and ready to learn on Monday! With all that being said, it was still a fun and jam-packed week.  I loved overhearing one of my kiddos tell his parent, "Mom, did you know the sun is ACTUALLY a star?!?!"  And I got to...

Food, Health and Hygiene Fun & TWO Friday Freebies!

My first ever parent teacher conferences are over and I survived! They actually went really well. Although, as many of my parents said, I talk to them so much anyways it wasn't like they were hearing anything new. What can I say? I'm so proud of their kiddos and constantly have to let them know about it! :) Our theme this week was all about Food and Health with a little bit of Hygiene. Overall the week went a lot more smoothly than I expected, being that I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off finalising details for conferences, putting together invitations for Pies with Grandparents next week, and trying to pick a holiday song for our class to sing at the Holiday Program because, as the office keeps kindly reminding us, Christmas is JUST AROUND THE CORNER. Makes me exhausted just remembering! Anyways, here's a look at some of the fun art, writing center, dramatic play, math and science stuff we did this week! Art: Vegetable Soup Stamping ...
