Birthday Boy - Caleb

On Sunday our friend Caleb will be 6! We hope that Caleb has a wonderful day! He was so nice and brought all of his friends a treat bag and a cupcake on Friday - thank you for being so kind!  Caleb's mom even came in and read us a story and we all loved it!

                                    What a perfect book for the birthday boy!

                                     Thank you Caleb for the treats!

                                         The birthday boy!

 

Happy Birthday Caleb!

King Casey

This week our King of the Jungle was Casey. If I were to tell you something about Casey I would have to say that he LOVES trains! He even brought a Thomas the Train to school.  Casey’s favorite color is red and his favorite book is Lightening McQueen – he even brought in a Lightening McQueen car to show all of us. He likes the movie Turbo and likes hockey! His favorite food is macaroni and cheese, which we all love as well! Casey’s favorite animal is an elephant. His favorite song is sung by the Fresh Beat Band and it is called “Rock Star” and we even got to jam out to it at school – we all had tons of fun dancing and singing! When Casey grows up he wants to be a doctor for animals. Casey enjoyed being the King of the Jungle and here is a short video of his special week! 

                    

Kindergarten Kares!

These past few weeks Meadow Lane has been collecting food items for the Lincoln Food Bank. We talked about why we needed to collect food and what it would be used for. As a class we decided we would try to bring 100 items and we were so close to meeting our goal. The friends in my room brought in 76 items of food, we even had a friend who brought items every single day - which is amazing! I was so very proud of the kids in my room for their efforts - I decided to donate $25 dollars towards our goal! All of my friends were excited to take the food down to the food barrels to help out those in our community! Here is a short video of us taking the food down to the barrels!


                   

Birthday Girl- Raegan!

On Tuesday we had another birthday girl! We hope that Raegan had a great day and that she enjoys being 6! She was so nice and brought each of her friends a treat bag - thanks Raegan for being so kind! Her dad even came to read our class two books this week!

King Caleb!

This week our King of the Jungle was Caleb. If I were to describe Caleb I would have to say that he is super funny and smart and he is a kid that just makes you smile!

Caleb loves the color red and the book The Lorax. He also likes the movie Cloudy with Chance of Meatballs! His favorite sport is football and his favorite food is pizza!

His favorite animal is a lion and he even brought in a picture of him pretending to be a lion in the long grass. He also likes the song “How do Skeleton’s Dance”! Caleb is special because he has a great family and when he grows up he wants to be a scientist. Caleb loved being the King of the Jungle and here is a short video of his special week! 

                      

Veterans Day!

Yesterday we celebrated a very important day in our country, Veterans Day!

I talked with my friends about how much the women and men have sacrificed for our country to keep us safe and free. We are so thankful for all of the veterans and for all the men and women who are still serving our country! We are truly so lucky to live in America! Words cannot express our gratitude for all that they have done for us. We made turkeys with our handprints and footprints with the words "from our hands down to our feet we say thanks for keeping us free!"  and I will be taking them to the veterans hospital this weekend to share with them. Please check out this short video we made in honor of Veterans Day.

             

Already November!

I can not believe that it is already November. I came back from my leave last Wednesday and what a fun week to come back! The kids and I had tons of pumpkin fun! I sure hope they told you all about it. This week I am getting back in to the swing of things and am able to see how hard my friends have been working while I have been away - I am truly amazed at all that they learned while I was gone. I can't wait to show and tell you all about it, but for now all I have is a short video of our school day on Thursday. I will do my best to post more about all the things we are working on and learning in kindergarten this year!
