Our tunnel walk...

Our kindergarten year...

 On the last day of school we came up with a list of words that came to our minds
when we thought of our year together and this is what we made....

Happy Mother's Day!!!

We hope all of our mom's have a wonderful day! This week at school we talked about how we are all so lucky to have people in our lives that love us, take care of us, and keep us safe and we talked a lot about our moms! I know that I am personally so thankful to my mother for being the most amazing person I have ever known. 

Moms - please know how much you are loved today and everyday! I hope all the moms like the LOVE boards we made for them throughout the year and I hope you can hang it up somewhere and display pictures or projects that your children have made! I also hope that you all get to relax and enjoy spending time together with your family.

100 days smarter!!!!

On the 100^th day of school we had so much FUN!!! We celebrated being 100 days smarter in so many different ways. We started the day off by showing off the projects we made with our families and they were awesome!!! We loved all of them and the kids are so excited to bring them back home – I just can’t part with them yet because they are so cute and I love seeing them in our coat hall, but I promise they will come back home eventually! We also made necklaces using 100 beads – we first used our counting mat to make 10 groups of 10 and then we started to make our necklace. We also talked about what we would buy if we had $100 and drew a picture and wrote a little story to go along with it. During daily math routines the kids were soo excited to get to 100 – we now know that we can show 100 in many different ways – it can be 1 group of one hundred, 10 groups of 10, or 100 ones. We are sooo smart! We also got to read some great books about the 100^th day of school and some of us even dressed up like we were 100 years old! I even challenged my friends to read 100 books and working together we did it!!! Again I was super proud of my friends! It truly was a wonderful day and I hope it is one that your child will not forget!! Here is the video I made from our super fun day!     
                    

Martin Luther King Jr. Day

We remember MLK, 

Honored on this special day.

He had a dream that we would stand

United together in this land, 

That we would strive to find a way

To live as friends in peace today.

He wanted each of us to see

The beauty of equality.

He taught that right overcomes wrong, 

That hope can turn the weak to strong, 

And showing love instead of hate

Would make our country truly great.

His message, meant to set us free, 

Was filled with hope for you and me.

So on this day let freedom ring, 

As we remember Dr. King!

                                              

On Friday we read a lot of books about Martin Luther King Jr and talked about 

why we don't have school on Monday, because it is a National Holiday honoring Dr. King. 

We made a project with our hands and we each made our own wish for the world! We made a world full of colorful people and freedom bells. Please watch our Dr. King video we made!
