I'm super excited to be part of the "Product Swap" with Melissa over at Jungle Learners! I am swapping a product with Jonelle at A Place Called Kindergarten. I'm so excited to use one of her products with my students! Be sure to follow my blog because I will be doing a giveaway of her product in the coming weeks!!
We learned a lot about Martin Luther King, Jr. this week! If you missed my MLK blog post, check it out here. My kiddos loved the books we read! If you want to grab that MLK freebie, click the image to go to Learning 4 Keeps TpT store!
I had been wanting to put labels on my tubs for awhile now and finally I did! I love how a label makes things look so much more organized - please tell me I'm not the only one that feels that way?!?!?!
I love doing "Math Chats" with my kindergarten friends! Do you use them with your students? Just post the picture and have them share about it using their math words. There is so much powerful math learning that goes along with it. I usually use them as a warm-up to my lesson and we talk about it on the first day and I record what they say. Throughout the week we use different math tools such as Rekenreks, number lines, ten frames, or dry erase boards to extend their learning. An example of this is when we used number lines with the math chat, I would have my students show how many snowflakes there are by clipping 14 on their number line. Then I would say, "What if I added one more snowflake?" Then they would clip 15 on their number line. I can't say enough wonderful things about math chats!!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!
