Sky Deck Chicago! I'm scared out of my mind!!!

My mom and me on Navy Pier

Hey Ms. Miller! Let's take a picture!

"I love my dad! I bet I will see him again!"

"Ms. Miller likes a rainbow!"

"Hey Ms. Miller! Let's take a picture just you and me!"

"Let's put bugs and frogs on our head and pretend we are scared and you take our picture!"

Weighing, Sorting, and Subtracting...oh my!

Who has the heavier side? Can you draw a picture to match what you see?

Once the jelly beans were sorted, students had to graph their results and then answer questions about their bag of jelly beans (most, least, favorite color, and complete number sentences using their results).

Introducing subtraction in kindergarten using dice

Santa Claus in Kindergarten?

No it's not Santa! We just had cupcakes for snack! :-)

You brought what for show and tell???????

You know you live in Wyoming cattle ranching country when this comes for show and tell!  Yup! You guessed it! It's a bone from a cow.  Hadn't seen that one for show and tell before!  LOL!

2 and 3 Dimensional Shapes with Marshmallows

 In math centers, students in KM built two and three dimensional shapes out of marshmallows.  Once they had created 5 2D shapes, they made 4 3D shapes.  It was really a light bulb moment for some students and allowed them to finally understand the difference between 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes. 

Pie the Principal!

 For every 100 minutes kindergarten students earned a ticket.  Here are our two lucky students throwing pies at our principal!  What a fun mess!
