All Aboard the Crazy Train!
Here we go with long distance learning... for KINDERGARTEN! 😂😳🙏
Last Thursday you picked up your child's paper bag of goodies! I will be going through what is all in your bags and folder and what I expect during this online adventure! Some of the things in there we won't get to right away. The links and the cubes will be for after we finish Unit 5 and move on to Measurement in Math. Some of you have other games or things in there that you can play anytime, I know there will be a number of Kiddos that won't want to wait that long!
With that being said, the Ziploc bags with art supplies in them are all planned out for one each week every Friday! However, you will have the directions for each art project the Monday before, so you could do them any time during the week.
There is also a Ziploc bag with 5 games and a die in it! You can play these anytime! You could also use the Unifix cubes as markers or pawns, so you can play them over again!
ATTENTION: According to our school calendar we have no school this Thursday, Friday and next Monday! And of course I already planned school and lessons for those days! So if you could take Week 1 Thursday, Week 1 Friday and Week 2 Monday and put them behind Week 4, I will save those for after April! I will however have you do the Art Lesson, as it is an Easter Egg! You can choose which day this week you would like to do it on! I have all the instructions below.
Alright, first and foremost I don't plan on having your kids sitting in front of a computer or iPad for hours a day... so with that being said, lets go through your folder!
I have 4 paper clipped packets of work sorted by weeks. You should have 4 weeks worth of instruction. Each week is then broken up by day. There are roughly 3-5 items/day.
At the end of April there will be a drop off/pick up time and day scheduled for you to turn in your child's finished work and pick up the next set (still praying we will be back sometime in May, but not holding my breath.)
I will give an overview of the week each Monday, but I will have other things posted each day! Your child must check the blog everyday and COMMENT for me to mark your child present each day. Each Monday I just want you to sign your kids name in the comments, Tuesday-Friday I will have a Question of the day that they will need to answer!
Monday: Will always start with a Calendar sheet, I did this sheet with them the last time we were in school, so they should know how to fill it out! The last day we were in school it was day 125, so their first calendar sheet would say it is day 126. Tallying may be difficult as we did not spend a lot of time with that before we left.
April Day 1 Paper is what I called "Morning Work," it has a little phonics and math all together! This one is pretty straight forward!
Math Review 4-3: Adding on to 10, subtractions, writing numbers 1-20. #3 is always one that trips them up. It says to draw a picture that shows 10 ones and 2 ones. So....

Ten shapes (any)together Then 2 shapes separate
Religion packet: Color a page each day as we go through Lent! Pray the Our Father and a Hail Mary each day, and work on your sign of the cross!

2. Using the water colors paint your egg!
3. Let it dry
4. Cut it out

If this is too much daily work or not enough, please let me know! I am trying to keep them busy, but not make a bunch of work for you parents either. Please do what you can and know that I understand if it all doesn't get done!
PLEASE let me know if you have any questions, obviously I am around.... and I would love to help!
God Bless you and your families!
