I am so excited! I got to be a guest blogger today at Kreative in Kinder. Crystal has wonderful kindergarten ideas to share so be sure to hop on over to her blog and check it out!
We missed two days of school this week due to snow and missed our Valentine’s Day parties. 🙁 But we got to make up for that today! Last week to get ready for Valentine’s, we did a whole unit on a poem called I Love Chocolate. Who doesn’t love chocolate and especially around Valentine’s Day?? First we practiced reading this short fun poem. It has some of our sight words in it and we also found rhymes.
After having learned our poem, we made it individual by taking out the word chocolate and putting in a food that we like. We colored a person cut out to look like us and put the food in our “tum”. The kids got very stylish and some even drew on earrings and necklaces. This little one’s favorite food is broccoli!! I just adore that she picked that food!
How cute! I love the idea of blog switcher-roos!
