Teddy Bear Picnic

          Our Teddy Bear Picnic was a hit!!  The kids had a great time and so did all the mom and dads!!  It's so nice to have such great parent involvement :)!  My kiddos also worked very hard this week ( and last) learning all about bears, color words, ABAB patterns, sorting, and beginning ABC's! Hope you enjoy the pics from this week and last! Sorry I didn't get last weeks pics  posted- for some reason I've been exhausted ;)!

Great reads from this week: Jamberry (love the rhyming and it ties into color words so well, Little Bear, Brown Bear, Corduroy ( we charted character, setting, problem, and solution)


 Every afternoon my kiddos would put their bears in their cubbies and every morning the bears would be somewhere else!! It was such a mystery!!

 So, Friday morning our bears totally disappeared.  So, we had to Go On A Bear Hunt!!  The students had to act out the story as they hunted and asked each teacher on our hall: Have you seen our bears?  Here is Ms. Lynsey answering our bear question! It was too much fun!

 After much searching we found them in the nurses station!  Below all of kindergarten with their precious bears.


Family fun photos of our Teddy Bear Picnic!!













 Here are our bears we made from paper plates and Styrofoam cups.  It was messy but fun.  Also, our ABAB patterns.  Below is our finished display!


Here are some items from last week.  Our sticker names!

A Sweet First Week!!

     Well, its been a Sweet First Week of School!!  I have to say my new bunch of kids are the best!  I do have a packed house this year- 21 little monkeys!!  We did our county phase in this week and today everyone came.  We had a great 1st day as a whole class but I'm one tired teacher! LOL!  I'm not sure why the beginning of school is so exhausting ( it couldn't have anything to do with 2 months off) : ) !!  
     The kiddos in room 204 worked hard this week.  We started the year off right with The Wheels on The Bus- Pete The Cat. ( Thanks Pinterest)  It went great with Deanna Jump's Activity - The Wheels on The Bus.
      Today it was all about Miss Nelson.  I love this book because  it's such a  fun way to teach little ones " how not to behave".  We followed it up with a super cute project - Miss Viola Swamp ( you can pick it up on TPT by Juile Lee)!!  Have a great weekend!  I would love to say this teacher is going to rest up this weekend- but no such luck! My sweet little Hannah turns 4 this weekend!
 Our cute little school bus project!!
 I totally forgot about our Kissing Hands! What mom doesn't love this!
Working hard on Viola Swamp! I must thank Ms. JoAnna and Ms. Shannon who gave us some help on our project!!


OK...these two little cuties would not smile!! However, they both did GREAT WORK!! 
Our FINISHED PROJECT!!  So proud of my class!!

  Miss Nelson anchor chart!  They loved comparing our class to the kids in the story!
Our School Bus Project....All Done!!

First day watercolors!

 Making new friends! I love the fact that boys could not wait to get out the doll house!!
 What a cute little girl pair! They both have lots of personality! 
 Sleepy Head!!
But not everyone was sleepy!!!
It was great first week!!
