Kinder Tidbits Tuesday

Well two days down this week, and 3 more to go.  Today we looked at numbers in math.  We made little flags with beads.  So if the flag said five the kinders had to thread 5 beads on the pipe cleaner flag.  It was great fun.  If anyone has any small beads at home(craft beads) and they would like to find a new home for them, we would gladly take them.  We do lots of fine motor activities with the beads and are always in need of a fresh supply. 

Laura Numeroff books are a hit with the kinders. They are understanding that she has a pattern to her books.  Today one little friend told me she went home and asked for a donut and then of course when you ask for a donut you need apple juice to go with it!  These little Kinder friends are so smart.  If you have never read a Laura Numeroff book, check them out.  :)

We will be doing a baking program in our room this year.  We will likely bake every Friday or so so if you have anything you could donate we would appreciate it.  :) If you want to know what sort of things we need you can tweet us at @admastonkinder or write us a note in the agenda.  :)

Also we have started to use scissors in kinder.  Well, this was fun! :) If you have a chance please help your child at home with scissors.  It is a hard skill and the more they practise the better. 

Have a great night everyone and see our little friends tomorrow! :)
