We also practiced our new sight word “see”. You can read more about how we teach sight words {here}.
Now let’s take a look at reading groups!
Our Houghton Mifflin story from earlier in the week was about fish, so we created a fish scene and used our sight word “see” to complete the sentence.
We also worked on sorting beginning sounds using this print and go activity.
During math, we finished up our unit on sorting, completed our Halloween graph, and introduced our new unit on position words.
We made this super cute and fun bee book from Kindergarten Crayons. I had an abundance of bee stickers {#hoarder} so we stuck them on the end of a popsicle stick and used it to tell the story while practicing our position words. The kiddos loved it!
After our whole group math, we chose math centers to work on.

We practiced one-to-one correspondence and fine motor skills by counting apples on the tree.
We worked on counting on using pumpkin numbers.
We also counted and graphed candy dice.
We practiced building our numbers using play-doh.
And finally, we used our number stamps.
After math, the early birds go to snack and recess and the late birds start school. We mirror our day from the morning, so late birds start with math.
Then all of our students come together for calendar time.
After calendar, the early birds go home and the late birds go to snack and recess. We finish off our day with our literacy stations and reading groups again with the late birds.
It is short, quick and exhausting, but we sure do have a lot of fun!
