For whatever reason our weekly reader has hibernation now instead of the winter, so I decided to make the best of it since it is still 80 degrees here in Texas. The kids are coming to school in their pj's on Friday and we are going to spend some time learning under a sheet tent. My best idea though I think is to use a shoe box and french fry holders from Sams to create a bear cave, the kids are going to paint the inside blue for the sky and stick gold star stickers inside. The french fry holders are getting stapled together and painted grey for the cave. I have printed off some pine trees and bear cut outs on cardstock. We are going to glue cotton balls on top of the cave for snow. I will post a few picks as soon as they are done.
Hello All, Today we had so much fun with our sight word from my freebie Snowflake Slap . First I laid out all of the snowflakes on the carpet. If the child could read me the word they could keep the card and crumple it into a snowball. Once all of the words were read and squished I told the class we could have a snowball fight! It was such great fun that we took our "snowballs" into another kinder classroom and attacked them. As the kids threw the sight word snowballs we made more snowballs and threw them into the crowd from leftover paper. It was great fun! Once we settled back into our classroom we placed all of the snowballs into a bucket and each child pulled a word. If they could read it they recorded it on the left side of the worksheet below, if they couldn't read the word they recorded it on the right. The ones most did not know were pretty consistent so I know which ones we need the most work on. So hop on over the TpT to grab your free copy of Snowflake Slap an...
