Popcorn!

This week we learned about Popcorn! We watched a few videos on how popcorn is made from plant to popcorn, and we even watched a slow-mo one to see what happens when it explodes!
Thursday we went to Rural Route 1 and had a great time! I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as we did!

Maddy turned 6 last week! Happy Birthday, Maddy!
We turned our sight words into popcorn! The kids loved reading their words with a partner! They even wanted to play it during playtime!






Playtime pictures!

We did an activity where all the kids wore a sight word on their head. Then they walked around the room reading everyone's words and drawing lines from the student's name to the sight word that matched. At the end, they had to figure out what word was on their own head. 



PJ Day with buddies!

Space Week

Last week was space week! Space week is such a fun week to teach, but it also is a crazy week! And it didn't help that it was so cold and we had a lot of indoor recess! 
We did a lot of cool things this week. We used watercolors to paint planets, star stickers to create our own constellations, watched some amazing videos and read a lot of books.

After lunch on Friday, NASA (Mrs, Lenzendorf) buzzed our room and cleared us for take off! We sat on our chairs and watch a video of a space shuttle blasting off!



















After we landed in space, we walked down to the "Space Station" in room 100 and had a great day doing centers with the whole Kindergarten!
We made moon pictures, read books and colored pictures, played a moon game with scooters, blasted off rockets, made constellations out of marshmallows and toothpicks, and made space food (pudding)!
















You can tell by Drake's head that it must have been a great time! He was sweating in his space helmet by the end!
