Science with Mr. Felix

 
Today we welcomed Mr. Felix, an FSCJ student and former Extended Day worker to our room to teach us a little bit about air. He read a great story about air and wind and then demonstrated and allowed us to experiment with how air makes things move. Fabulous lesson, Mr. Felix! And  a big thanks for providing us with our own balloons to take home to experiment with as well.
On your mark,

Get set,

Goooooo!!!!!

Listen to Reading

One of our station choices at Reader's Workshop is Listen to Reading.
When you ask a kindergartener why it's important to listen to books here are some answers you may get:
* to be a better reader * to listen to the teacher * to get smarter * to know the story  * to know the words and story * so you don't get behind other kids * and best of all because it's FUN!
Now to find a good spot to read! We like to call it our bubblespace.
 So, where do we like to read in our room?
Trenton likes to read in a tub!

Rithika likes to read on a rug!

Daniel likes to read on a bench!

Khalil likes to read under a table!

Briell and Grayson like to read side by side!

Ashlyn is in a tub too!
