Our
first few days in kindergarten have been wonderful! The children are getting to know one another,
learning the routines of the classroom and school, and exploring
materials. There is so much to learn at
the start of the year!
Each
day we begin with a morning meeting.
This is a time when children and adults greet one another and help
everyone feel welcome. The children work on many social skills during morning
meeting including active listening, participating, and interacting with friends
in a positive manner. Morning meeting is a great way to start the day and
reminds everyone that our classroom learning community is caring, safe, and
respectful.
We will spend the first few weeks
building community within the classroom and school. The children will be reminded of the routines
and procedures during the day. We will
work on taking care of ourselves, helping others, and respecting
materials.
