Kindregarten: Week 3

The highlight of this week is that Hailey had snack and show-and-tell day. Hailey had a tough day at school on Tuesday. It was so bad that Mrs. Thomas came to me after school and said that Hailey was emotional about everything and suggested that Hailey needed more sleep.  (Hannah didn't sleep well and kept everyone up). However, she was wearing her show-and-tell sign and was so excited for the following day.

I suggested that Hailey should bring Lambie, but surprisingly she choose My Little Pony. Hailey wanted us to a "dress rehearsal" of her show-and-tell.  She told us we can ask one question each, then she would talk more about pony.  So we asked: what's her name? -rainbow hair pony, where did she get it?-Christmas (real answer is for her 4th birthday), who gave it to her? -Santa (real answer is her friend Emily (Trista's daughter). Then she told us a huge story about flying in clouds.

Hailey had a great show-and-tell day.  She brought granola bars, (I gave her 40 bars (2 boxes) even though they only asked for 30, expecting the extras to come back home, but they didn't.) the kids asked a lot of questions about pony, and she was even Mrs. Thomas' helper.

Here is Hailey's schoolwork that she brought home for the week.

The blue thing is a small cat, and the big picture is Hailey dressed up as a cat.  I think they talked about big and small this week.

 This picture is of Hailey and Audrey flying a kite next to a tall building.  The words are "We like to fly a kite."

 Here's the back side that she doodled on. It's of Hailey and Audrey holding hands under an umbrella. The small drawing in the left corner is a house, and the big blue/purple drawing is a volcano erupting. But don't worry, Hailey and Audrey didn't get hurt because they had the umbrella.

 They practiced writing the letter B. The circled letters are the ones she did really well on. She also struggles a little with lowercase b's and d's. 

 Hailey wrote see how people grow on little card stripes, cut them out, then pasted them on the paper. The picture around the words, has something to do with a long ladder, a booby trap, a treasure box, and a swing set.  It was a very involved story that Hailey described.

 I bet this picture was in correlation to a book they read.  Hailey wrote, When I was small (under a shorter person) now I am big (by the tall person). There is a rainbow between the two people.

She also had a writing practice that I'm guessing she didn't finish.  Hailey said they were supposed to write words that rhymed with Hat.
