September 30th - October 4th

This week, we were working on action words.  We read a story called, Everybody Works.  We named the jobs and the different actions that went along with each job.  In kindergarten, the boys and girls are given classroom jobs.  We were able to describe the action of each classroom job!  Way to go, kindergarten!!



Door Holder - holding the doors!

Line leader - leading the class!

Calendar - ordering the numbers!

Messengers - delivering the mail!

Plant person - watering the plants!

Classroom Pet - feeding the fish!

Clean up helper - cleaning the classroom!


In math, we are working on patterns.  The boys and girls were creating three and four cubed patterns. First, we named our pattern, then created the pattern several times.  Challenge your child at home to create patterns with things around the house.  A pattern can be made from many things, colors, objects, numbers, etc.

Throughout the week, some students have worked independently on building sentences using the Montessori movable alphabet.  We have been building two digit numbers with the Montessori materials, and using the teen and ten boards.










This week we got to meet our "HCA Families" during Community Time!  The kindergarten students are placed in a small group with other students and will work on projects throughout the year and enjoy some social time with their "families!"
