Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day! ( A few days late)

Last week we paired up with another kindergarten class in Pennsylvania and shared "virtual valentines". We had so much fun with this and I hope you enjoy :)

100th Day of School!

Wow! I can't believe we already passed the 100th day of school! That means we are over half way through kindergarten. Time sure does fly when you're having fun(learning)!

We had so much fun on Monday celebrating the 100th day and here are some pictures from our day.

The kinder teachers dressed up as 100 year olds to celebrate! The kiddos were not quite sure what to think about all the "grandma" teachers. 

Students wrote about what they would do if they had $100. All of there were so cute!

 ( I would buy 100 video games.)

 (I would buy a house.)

 ( I would get $1,000,000,000 video games and a system.)

 ( I would throw it to make it rain.)

 ( I would give it to people who don't have money.) This one just melts my heart!

During math we glued 100 gumballs to a gumball machine. Students used a 10 frame and glued 10 of each color. This was a lot of work but the results were well worth it!

Our new bulletin board :)

We finished up the day doing some more 100 math and getting to wear special 100 day glasses.

If you can't tell from the pictures, the 100th day at school is a pretty big deal and is one of my favorite days of the year!

Next up, Valentine's Day tomorrow! What a week!

Chinese New Year

I am so sorry for my lack of blogging lately. Things have been so hectic this month I have had to take a little break from the blog. But, I'm back and ready for 2014!

Today we celebrated Chinese New Year with a parade around the school. The kiddos had a BLAST!! We have been talking about different cultures and traditions in social studies so this was the perfect end to our week.

Students made a mask to represent the animal of the year they were born . Students were either rats (very cute ones!) or pigs. Our fabulous art club and art teacher made the AMAZING lion and dragon heads.

Here are some pictures from the day:

All the other grades came out to watch and cheer us on!

Almost back!

We had such a great time today and loved learning about the Chinese culture. 

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a a wonderful Friday!
