This Weeks Countdown Letters: C-D-E

Monday-Cookies Day- We also added caterpillars to our list.  All but one of our caterpillars morphed into butterflies.   It was time to release our little creatures.  We packed up our cookies and took our butterflies to the school garden.  The kids munched on their cookies as we watched our butterflies fly away.  This was another great writing opportunity.  Once all 4 had flown away we returned to class to write about it.  Giving the kids a real life experience to write about really improves the quality of their writing.

Tuesday-Donuts Day- Yes, lets give five year old donuts. Of course I gave them the donut holes just before dismissal.  I must say they were very strange shaped donut holes.  We read If You Give a Dog a Donut and made a list od words that began with D.  Here are my two favorites...

Drum Roll Please...

Doliphant (My guess is that it is a cross between a dolphin and an elephant)

Drunk (Gotta love that one.. I asked my sweetie for the sound thinking she didn't know a word)

Wednesday-Exercise Day- It was super hot today, so we did our exercising indoors.  We worked out toHarry's Kindergarten Let's Get Fit.  This is still my kids' favorite video.

Tomorrow will be Fish and Frisbee's.....
