Room 131's Words

We read Max's Words and cut words out of magazine to make our own collection of words. Who needs a stamp or coin collection when you can have a word collection!! Everyone was so excited to find star words

and other words they could read.

Room 131's Got Skills

I love Glogster! Here is a glog of some of our favorite websites that we have played on our Smartboard. There are 4 computers in my classroom and this glog is set as the home page when my students open Firefox. Our computer teacher has a glog that is the home page when they open Safari. So we have lots of skills to practice, practice, practice. The best part of Glogster is that I can update my glog weekly after I introduce new websites and instantly these sites are available to my students.

We watched the movie Horton Hatches the Egg right up to the point when the egg starts to crack and then we stopped the move to create what might have hatched out of an egg in a silly Seuss book.

The quilt was made by my mom, the front reminds me of Dick and Jane and the back is signed by the whole kindergarten class.
