Miss Brehm's Kindergarten Classroom

I hope everyone had a peaceful break! We jumped right back in the swing of school yesterday! It started with our writing celebration! Everyone enjoyed exploring friends work. Friends took turns listening to the story and looking at pictures! Today we started exploring geometry! We used pattern blocks to fill in a large triangle!  The two big questions we had to answer were how many of each shape did we use we use and how many shapes did we fit in the big triangle! It is wonderful to be back! Love, Miss Brehm

As we take this week to reflect on what we are thankful for I will be thinking of you and your families.

I would not be able to do what I do without your constant support. Thank you. Love, Miss Brehm

Today we received a special letter and our special POWER POINTERS! We also got brand new reading cards! Every friend has their own and we use it as a reminder for what we are working on. Before we start independent reading we check our cards to remember exactly what we need to practice. Right now everyone is practicing POINTER POWER! Our letter is now in a safe place where we can refer back to it! Reader Man knows Spider-man! Can you believe it!?!
