Kindergarten Round-Up took place on February 8th, with 11 students attending! It was a fun day for me to meet next year’s Kindergarteners and for them to experience a full day of school. They were eager to learn and excited to be “big Kindergarteners!”
Kindergarteners have had a fun, busy, and productive month in February! We focused on love, doing several heart-themed art projects. We made valentines and wrote letters to send to Trinity’s members who are homebound or living in nursing homes and assisted living facilities.
A highlight this month was the 100th day of school on February 6th. To celebrate, we dressed as 100-year-old people and made “100 days smarter” crowns. For our snack, we counted and ate 10 pieces of 10 different snacks. Our learning all day was focused on the number 100—we built towers with 100 Dixie cups for STEM and did lots of counting. The kids had a great time!
Kindergarteners started memory work in the 2nd semester, and they are doing great! We’re already working on our third verse: “Worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.” - Matthew 4:10.
In Phonics, we’re continuing to work on sounding out words. We’re also learning many sight words in both small groups and as a whole class. Our handwriting continues to improve as we work on neatness, size, and placing capital and lowercase letters correctly.
In Math, we’re working on adding up to ten. We’ve used lots of manipulatives, including beads, candy hearts for Valentine’s Day, and dominoes!
