March 8th - March 12th

 

This week we are learning about digraphs.  We came up with a long list of "sh" words.  Each child picked a word or two, and created a phonetic sentence using the Montessori Movable Alphabet.  The kindergarten students are getting so good with hearing different sounds in each word.  Check out some of the "sh" sentences!










We are beginning to get "Spring Fever!"  This week we were able to enjoy some spring-like temperatures and enjoy playing outside again!






The boys and girls did a fantastic job creating a spring mural for our classroom.  We are ready to see the flowers bloom, hear the birds sing, and watch the butterflies flutter across our yards!
