Each student built a rectangular prism & a cube using clay & toothpicks. Previously, they made cones, spheres, & cylinders out of playdoh. After they finished making all the 3D Shapes we learned they had free time to explore with the clay, skewers, & toothpicks. They had a lot of fun & are so creative!
I am a Kindergarten teacher in a small Texas town. I am loving every second & learning more than I thought possible!

Living and Nonliving Organisms, Puppet Show, Kagan's Talking Chips
Decomposers
Learning about herbivores. We watch Dinosaur Train when we have indoor recess on cold days so we had many children who were able to relate this to Tank the Triceratops. :)
We learned how a plant is a living thing because it drinks using its roots. :) It also creates oxygen for other living things.
We sorted pictures of living & nonliving organisms onto our giant smartboard T chart.
More Herbivore learning
I love how in this picture, you can clearly see, only ONE student is talking. Great job guys!!! :)
