Winter, Winter, Where are You?

This week we continued our winter theme with lots of weather work!  
We made a winter book, but I forgot (once again) to take pictures.  The kids were so good this week and we got 83% or more on all our DIBELS tests.  I am so proud of how far they have come this year!

We are still working on drawing the different fractions.


You can't see on this one, but my kids REALLY like the slash mark.  We are working really hard on putting the slash mark on groups that equal five, not on all 8 tallies.

Some kids made patterns by colors and others made patterns by the types of clothing.









This friend drew our friend Hunter. :)

Great illustration!


I wasn't focused on the spelling, just coloring and writing the sounds they heard.  They did a really great job though!  As you can see, this student didn't follow the directions and color the pictures the correct color.


 I made a few new skip counting games.  The kids in their seats worked to put the numbered kids in order.  The kids LOVED this!

  We counted by 10s....


 and 5's!

Counting by 5's.  We illustrated using one had each and went back and counted by ones to check ourselves!  So smart!

    I love that they are Kinder level...so many things out in blogland are to difficult for my darling little ones.
    My favorite is the "stack of snowballs" my boys would get a kick out of that one!!

  2. I come up with a lot of them on my own but some of them may have originated from other teachers at my school like Julie Lee or Jamie Mayas. Check out their TPT stores! If you don't find things similar to mine, I will be more than happy to share! If I remember I will send you the snowball stack next week! Thanks so much for your interest in my blog!

  3. It looks like you had such a fun week! I love the activities (especially the scarf counting and snowball stacking, but they are all so cute)! I love Julie and Jamie's TpT products so it's no wonder I love yours too!
    I'd be willing to donate to your Donor's Choose project if you feel like sharing:)
    Enjoy your weekend!
