On the second day of kindergarten, we revisited The Kissing Hand and completed another project which involved reading a poem, printing our hands, and adding a kiss! Our new story was Pete the Cat Rocking in his School Shoes. Each of us designed a school shoe. This time, we practiced the evacuation drill with the whole school (no alarm). The children had health and met Ms. Kennedy! Our math practice involved exploring pattern blocks.

Day Two in Kindergarten
First Day in Kindergarten
Our first day in the classroom was very busy! We practiced some of our routines (lockers, hand washing, greeting others, lining up, snack & lunch expectations, playground safety, practicing an evacuation drill, mailboxes, Home/School folder, and more). We learned about our daily schedule and had our first gym with Mr. Shields! We read The Night Before Kindergarten by Natasha Wing. We also read The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn and completed projects based on the book. In the afternoon we enjoyed The King of Kindergarten by Derrick Barnes and made the first day of kindergarten crowns! The children worked hard and were tired!
We read The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn, discussed the book and our feelings, and completed a project afterward.

Welcome to Pond Cove Kindergarten!
I am excited to be teaching kindergarten again this year and look forward to getting to know all the children and their families! I encourage families to visit our classroom blog often! It will be the spot where I will update you on our learning. You will be able to see the children working and playing. I hope you can take a few moments regularly throughout the school year to share the posts with your child. Please see the Cornell Kindergarten Supply List 2022-2023. Have fun getting your supplies ready for school!
