This is the time of year that everything starts coming together in kindergarten -- all the days of repetition start to pay off, and these 5 and 6 year old kids make me proud. Yesterday I asked one of my girls to write the morning message -- she's been doing some good writing in class, and I thought she might be ready. She was!! Except for "Dear grrls and buss," she spelled nearly everything correctly, even carefully copying "Thursday" from the calendar. It is so satisfying to see them using all the rules for "5 Star Writing."
- Punctuation at the end of sentences.
Now I have others eagerly waiting for their turn to write -- I LOVE MY JOB!!
Love the pics you shared! I am your newest follower !

Hello!
ReplyDeleteI love that the book barn is your profile picture. :)
My barn is getting so work out. She may need some TLC this summer. I am testing your word verification thing!
I had to do the word verification!!! :(
ReplyDeleteThanks Michelle and Reagan for stopping by. Don't you just love this time of year when they are finally able to do some independent work? I had another one asking to do the morning message today -- awesome!
