Kindergarten Fun!

The week before last the Kindergarteners performed at the Kindergarten Round-Up at Bent Tree.  They were dressed in western looking clothes and did a great job.  I have some pictures and videos of the performance.

Her class is so small, which has been a huge blessing giving Emerson more one-on-on time with her teacher, Mrs. Pye.  Emerson loves school and loves her teacher.  She does not like her homework that we have to do each week, but it is unbelievable to me to see how much she has learned.  She is reading sentences by sounding out words and learning more and more sight words.  She is improving her handwriting and has gotten to great with writing lowercase letters and not just uppercase.  Now she is also spelling words and writing from memory.  Her math skills are also crazy impressive to me. She does word problems, addition and subtraction, counts to 100 (also by 5s, 10s, etc)  I'm so proud of her!

This past week they celebrated 100 days of school by dressing as 100 year olds and brought containers filled with 100 of some item.  We chose beads that we put into a jar.  She wore a dress and cardigan that we already had, I bought some $1 glasses from the store and used baby powder in her hair.  :)
