Miss Brehm's Kindergarten Classroom

It's Friday!!! That means Ms. Graf comes to read with us and we just absolutely love it! Today she read The Hippy Hoppy Toad .  I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!  I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

This morning I surprised friends with a new member of our classroom family, Zogika! Zogika is a beta fish and can be found at our sunshine chair. Friends are excited to have a new member of our classroom family and enjoy the calming environment Zogika helps to create. Happy Thursday! I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm p.s. Thursday Folders came home today, please take all of the information, student work and artwork out of the folders and return them to school before next Thursday. Thank you!

As a class we have been working with the company Student Treasures to publish a free classroom book! The title of our book is I Spy Shapes. It is inspired by the many I Spy books in our classroom library. In the book you will be asked to find hexagons, triangles, circles, rhombuses, and trapezoids. It was also a great opportunity to talk about concepts of print such as the title, title page, dedication page, table of contents, etc. (Title Page) (Dedication Page) This is the second time I am working with Student Treasures and I am really excited about this opportunity. Here is the book we made my last year at JES. (This is the deluxe hardcover) You as families have to opportunity to purchase if you wish. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BUY THE BOOK. I really want to stress that. Please do not feel pressured by any means to buy the book.

We started reading a new favorite today... Mrs. Wishy Washy.    The partner reading is INCREDIBLE! Hope you are staying warm and dry! I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

This am we had all school morning meeting, but in a new place... the GYM! We learned about the Chill Zone today and read a new book Moody Cow.  I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

My goal of keeping fresh flowers at the sunshine was sustained by attending a childhood friend's wedding this weekend. She happily gave one of the centerpieces to our classroom and it looks lovely! I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

This morning our school took part in an evacuation. In backpacks you will find a letter from Ms. Graf explaining what took place. If you have any questions as she states please don't hesitate to reach out. With that being said, I was truly impressed with how every student in our class listened, cared for one another and displayed kindness and respect. (It wasn't just me saying that either... I know I can be biased). Many teachers came to speak with me about how impressed they were in how as a class we handled the whole day. When we returned to school we had our snack, did a little math and then went to lunch. It was so routine, friends got right back to our day. I am very proud. I wish you well. Love, Miss Brehm

Everyone is coming home with their very own copy of Caps for Sale . This book has become a quick favorite of ours and we LOVE to read it! The readers in our class have become such incredible readers in such a short period of time. I hope you are ready to become listeners instead of readers! I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

We started our morning ROCKIN' with a jam and then eased into some great literacy stations. Today we worked on the alphabet (identifying letters and sounds), the sight words the, see, and a, and added a new book about fall to our book boxes! It was a productive morning up until recess when we had our school evacuation... more on that in my next post! Hope you all had a great FUNday! (Please be forewarned everyday can and most likely will be a FUNday! 😁 I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm
