Kindergarten Time Line

While learning about insects and their life cycle, we took time out and made a time line of our favorite times together this year.  First, we put the months in order, then we glued pictures of happenings during that certain month.  One little girl said, "How old were we in that picture?" 

The children also had a chance to add some of their favorite times. 

Insects

This past week we were entamologists and we studied the amazing world of insects.  The children chose what insect that would like to learn about, and each day, broke up into groups and shared with the others their insect's body features, life cycle, and a few interesting facts.

Class survey:  Do you think bugs are creepy or cool?

Here are a few of our insect centers:

After learning about plants and tops and bottoms of plants, we reviewed how important it is to eat healthy.

What grows in your garden?

Does your family plant a garden? 

 We read The Carrot Seed and learned about the main idea of a story.  We cut pictures out of a magazine and shared the main idea. 

We read Up, Down and Around and learned what kind of things grow above or below the ground. 

We enjoyed reading Tops and Bottoms. 

Here's a few of our farm and plant centers.

Making flowers with pattern blocks. 

We are publishing a book!

We read The Enormous Watermelon and used our problem solving skills to figure out how many hands

it took to pull the watermelon up. 

Mother's Day is coming up soon!
