Measurement Math

We are learning how to measure in Kindergarten!

We discussed what measurement is and 

 how we can use different items to measure. 

We measure using cubes, links, and non-standard units. 

Check out our spider rulers and our measuring cubes.

Creepy, Crawling Spiders

Last week, we were learning all about SPIDERS!

Joke Box

Joke Box

I need your help with a little something. I want to create a Joke Box for my kids to use for our brain breaks. Although I know it is important to be learning every minute of the day, research has shown that the human brain does respond more and better when given mental breaks to recharge and reset. I feel like a great way to give my students a quick recharge is to tell a joke. :)

If you and your child could come up with a "kid" appropriate joke to write down and send in to place in our joke box, I would really appreciate it. I know the kids will love them!

Please send these joke any time and throughout the year. We will use these all year long. Have fun with your child finding these too! :)

Library Books

Parents:

Please send your child's library book

back by Thursday. 

We will be going to library 

on Thursday this week. 

Fabulous Fourth Week!
