Today we enjoyed capturing what we created and designed with iPads.  Some of us took photos of things that we feel great about and ways we make a difference.  We posted on our kidblogs, started new stories during our writer's workshop time and enjoyed some scientific writing as well as estimating and then counting our pumpkin seeds!  We counted over 600 seeds!

Digital Citizenship Week

We started off our week sharing how we are digital citizens.  We stared by sharing how we are citizens and then realized that when we share our ideas with the world through Skype and twitter, we then become digital citizens!

Making Mathematical Connections During Morning Meeting!


This morning Ms. Jessica did a great job with our morning meeting! We created a pumpkin using different attributes on the SMART board and we created tallies!  We use tallies to keep track of "how many" we have.
 Our SMARTboard is a great interactive tool.  It helps us develop a deeper understanding of the many concepts we are exploring in Kindergarten.

New Morning Meeting Activity!


This morning during our morning meeting Ms. Caitlin asked us to identify letters and sounds that we have been exploring.  Then we had to find sight words we are learning too in our morning message.  Ms. Caitlin created a SMART notebook page where we had to identify pictures that had a specific first sound.  It was really fun!
