Update =)

We have been very busy in the Cohn Shoppe over the past few months!! We learned lots of new letters and letter sounds! We have studied Native Americans, turkeys, and Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful feast thanks to the fantastic parents and the delicious food you all contributed! Thank you so much for making that all possible!!!

We are currently searching for our Gingerbread Man. He was super fast and ran away from us last week! If you see any traces of him, please let us know =)

Letters Oo and Aa!

Hello Parents and Friends!!

Let me first apologize for not updating the blog last weekend. I have been a bit under the weather for the past two weeks. For those of you that were able to make it to Curriculum night, you probably noticed my dwindling voice. Thankfully I have gotten my voice back and I am getting better!

Over the past two weeks, we have learned all about the letters Oo and Aa. Ask your children what sounds they make! For Oo, think of "octopus" or "on." For Aa think of "apple" and "alligator!" We also did a unit called All About Me! The students completed a book about some of their favorite things which will be sent home later this week. We also have been going to the computer lab and playing an exciting math game on hekko.com. We will be going to the computer lab every Monday and Friday to continue working on computers!

Just a reminder, students no longer need to bring in their own snack. We have started group snacks where one student brings in a snack for the entire class. If you have misplaced the snack calendar, let me know and I will send home another!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!
Ms. Cohn

PS. I will put the videos up a little later. I made a longer video this past weekend and it was too large of a file to put on this site. I will split it into two videos and put them up ASAP!

Also, if you would like to donate money to our classroom, please visit Adopt-A-Classroom!
This money would help us buy books to improve our classroom library as well as some educational games for centers!

First Full Week of Kindergarten!

We all survived our first full week of kindergarten =)

The year is off to a wonderful start! We have made new friends and started learning new concepts. We studied the letter "c" and your children should be able to tell you what sound it makes! Learning the names of everyone in the class was something that was stressed this week. There are 21 wonderful students and I made sure to change the seating arrangements and the center groups so everyone got to meet and work with every other student in the class. Your children all showed excitement about being in school and I can't tell you how lucky I am to have them in my classroom! I hope every week goes as well as this week did!

Enjoy the long weekend!
Ms. Cohn
