We were excited to read with our reading buddies last week...

Here are a few more pictures to share:

Pumpkins for orange week - we learned that a pumpkin starts as a seed!

After reading the book "The Grouchy Ladybug" by Eric Carle the kindergartners made ladybugs for red week.

Our first habit is to be proactive - you are in charge of making good choices!

We love America!

Mr. Faller came to read a story from the '7 Habits of Happy Kids' book to us.  He showed us pictures of a beehive he has at his house.

Mrs. Brockway came to meet us and read her favorite story called 'My Friend Rabbit'.  We had fun talking with a friend to decide how to get the airplane out of the tree.

Mrs. Kuperas comes to our class to help us learn our I-care Rules.  Soon she will be coming with a special friend, I-care Cat.

We are working together to put 'mat man' together.  Mat man helps us learn how to make and draw a person.

We take turns putting each piece on the carpet to build 'mat man'.

We are making playdoh worms to 'write' our name.

The playdoh is fun to work with!

Here is one of our friendly faces in kindergarten!

Welcome to school!!! I am so happy to meet all of our new kindergarten friends and I am looking forward to a great year with you!

Here are pictures from a few recent events in kindergarten...

Thank you to Mrs. VandeVoorde and Mrs. Brauer for coming to help us plant broccoli and a special type of lettuce with us today!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Thank you to all of our families who were able to help on family day.  We had fun making Easter baskets, coloring eggs and making a carrot!

We had fun at our storybook character day!  We met princesses, Fancy Nancy, many superheroes and different types of animals, as well as Clifford and Clifford's friend.
