We had our first week of kindergarten last week. Our district tried out a staggered start this year, so students with last names A-L came Tuesday, M-Z came Wednesday and everyone was there Thursday and Friday. I also had an assistant Thursday and Friday. We do not normally have assistants.
It was a tiring week, but I thought it was pretty productive. I have 19 kiddos this year, which is the smallest class I have ever had in my 11 years. I'm pretty pumped about that. I have a "high ability cluster" in my room, meaning that a group of kiddos who are already reading were intentionally put together in my room. It is going to be an adventure for sure!
We did a lot of routines and centers to keep them engaged.

We worked on building color words. |

We learned how to use the iPads. |

Using a magnifying glass to find color words hidden on the monster and record them. |

Playing at Housekeeping. |

Go Noodle = Love! Yes, I only had 7 kids on M-Z day (2 are finishing up a center). |
We had a productive week last week. Can't wait to build on it this week. Looking forward to sharing our year with you!
