The students in our classroom are excited to learn. Whether we are running around outside, playing math games, or writing about our families, we are having fun. Learning how to read and write in our classroom is like deciphering a secret code. As we gain knowledge of the letters and their corresponding sounds, we are able to put them together on paper to share our ideas without even having to speak them out loud! This is a fascinating and mysterious process. There are so many ways that we build literacy skills in kindergarten. Here are some examples...
Practicing letter formation in our hand writing books
Asking questions and listening to upper school friends talk about robots
Spelling our names with letter blocks
Sharing books with friends
Labeling our play structures
Pretending to be Oompa Loompas from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Writing about what kind of candy we would invent if we had our own factory
Establishing a joyful relationship with academic activities is essential for building a foundation of effective lifelong learning!
