Kindergarten Summer Camp

Where did this summer go?  It just flew by!

This past week we wrapped up our 3 weeks of summer school.  I always have the privilege of teaching our incoming kindergartners.  It is an absolute joy to get to know many of the faces I will see regularly during the school year.  

My theme for summer school this year was Kindergarten Summer Camp!  We made tissue paper fires, played math games with white puff balls (we called them marshmallows), had tents set up, and went "fishing."  The kids had a blast and they were able to be the first ones to try out my new Kindergarten Summer Camp unit.  Here are a few of the highlights you can find in the unit:

Alphabet S'mores

My kiddos enjoyed finding and matching the uppercase and lowercase letters.  They also had the additional challenge of finding the beginning sound picture.

Which Fish Did You Catch?

We practiced lowercase letters by placing letter fish in a pocket chart.  The kiddos took turns hiding the fishing pole behind a letter.  The others took turns pointing to and then naming a letter to see if they caught a fish!

Emergent Story Books

We worked through 2 emergent story books.  "How Many Fish?" asks students to count and write the numbers 2-5.  "Time for Camping" has students write the sight word I or We to complete the story.
