Our latest unit in math focuses on measurement. We have been comparing the length of various objects and discussing ways we might measure lengths. Today, we heard the story of a sneaky squirrel and a rabbit who visited our classroom and left some colored paths for us to measure. Take a look at this video of how we decided to measure the paths!

Measuring Animal Paths

New Year, New Goals!
I hope you all had a restful and rejuvenating holiday break with your families! It was wonderful to return to school to see my kindergartners' bright, smiling faces, excited and ready to get back to your school routine. On our first day back from break, we discussed how it was a new year and how people sometimes make new year's resolutions or goals for themselves. We read the book Squirrel's New Year's Resolution and then designed party hats and wrote our own learning goals for 2018.
Many of the students are hoping to learn how to read, to learn more about writing, or to be good friends. Take a look at the display that is hanging outside of our classroom:

I look forward to working with these wonderful students as they achieve and surpass their new goals! Happy New Year!
