Mrs. Brown's Kindergarten Transition Room

We had such a wonderful first full week of school! Our kindergarten friends have been working hard, learning new routines, and showing us just how much they are capable of. During center time, we focused on letter sounds and letter formation. We also began our full week of Language Arts using the UFLI program. One of our favorite activities was building our very own sound wall and filling it with the sounds we are learning! We also made learning hands-on by practicing horizontal and vertical lines and building roads for our cars to drive on. Another favorite was our letter parking garage, where students matched letters and drove them to their matching parking spots. 🚗🅿️ In Religion, we talked about how God is love and explored all the different ways we can show love and kindness to others. During Journal Time, we focused on our color themes for the week. Our kindergarten friends created a color book for each theme while practicing color words and tracing those words. 🌈 We are al...

  Today was another wonderful day in kindergarten! We officially started our language arts program and learned all about the different ways our mouths move to make sounds. We practiced how our mouths, lips, and tongues work and explored different letter sounds. It was so much fun watching the kids learn and practice these new skills! In math, we worked on the number 4—counting, identifying, and practicing how to write it. We also had our first religion lesson, where we talked about how much God loves each of us. ❤️ For Color Week, today was all about RED! ❤️ We made our very first color book and had fun learning and finding things that are red. Tomorrow, we’ll be learning all about YELLOW! 💛 Students may wear a yellow shirt with uniform bottoms. It was a great day filled with learning, practicing, and lots of growing! I’m so proud of our little learners! 🌟

  It was a fantastic Friday in our Kindergarten Transition Classroom! ❤️ Today, we continued practicing how to walk safely in the hallways and worked on the number 3 by counting and practicing how to write it. We had lots of fun learning along the way! We ended our week with an all-school fire drill that turned into a dance party and Popsicles to help everyone beat the heat! 🍦💃🕺 Side note for next week: We will be learning all about colors, so be sure to check the email to see which color shirt your child should wear each day! 🌈 It was a wonderful week and I’m so proud of these kiddos and how brave they were in a new classroom this week.  I can’t wait to see everyone back on Monday after a refreshing and relaxing weekend! 💕

  Today was another busy day in our Kindergarten Transition Class! ☀️🔢 We learned all about the number 1 and practiced how to write it. We also went to specials (some went to music and some went to PE), enjoyed indoor recess in our upstairs classrooms, and learned all about Calendar Time! 🗓️ Of course, we even squeezed in a few GoNoodle brain breaks and had lots of fun along the way! 💛 We all were able to earn enough stars to find a treasure to take home from the classroom treasure chest!  New news: I also made a few changes to our communication log! I switched it to a new format that I felt was more organized, clear, and easier to use (I type way faster than I write). I’m always looking for ways to make communication between home and school as smooth and helpful as possible! 💛

What a wonderful first day in our Kindergarten Readiness class! 🌟 Our little learners had a busy day getting familiar with their new classroom, learning important rules and routines, playing on the playground, and meeting their 4th grade buddies! 📚💛 They are all such great kids and I think they would agree that it was a great day! We had so much fun learning, exploring, and getting ready for a fantastic kindergarten year. We can’t wait to see what the rest of our time together brings! 🎉
