Writing In Young Fives Kindergarten Happens Daily

The kids “shared the pen,” this week for the first time when they added their names to our first group afternoon message.  

 

We are in the process of coloring the “Sound to Letter” card a little everyday.  In the future we will be using this visual aid during journal time to help us to identify the beginning sounds we isolate in the words we want to write.  This facilitates  child created inventive spelling, and eventually will help kids to sound out cvc conventionally spelled words.

We write our names everyday

We are concentrating on letter placement.between the skyline the mid-line, and the ground line, and proper letter formation.

We are putting chalk to chalkboard and learning how to write our numbers and letters.
