Cookies Anyone?!

~ The kindergarteners had fun with cookies last week in the following ways:

• listening to cookie stories
• singing cookie songs
• counting chocolate chips
• playing the "Who Stole the Cookie From the Cookie Jar?" name game
• drawing and writing about our favorite cookies for a class book
• doing the "cookie dance"!
• and our favorite...  enjoying COOKIE TASTE TESTING!!!  After tasting sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and Oreos, our class vote and graph revealed chocolate chip cookies as the overall favorite!  YUM!
  

Let the Journey Begin...

~ It was an absolutely amazing first few days of kindergarten!  This group of incredible little people is off to a FANTASTIC start!  I can already tell that we are in for the best year ever!  I am one blessed teacher!  Let the journey begin... 

Meet and Greet!

~ It was great seeing so many of you today at Washington Elementary's Meet and Greet!  Putting faces with the names on my class list is a great feeling and makes me even more excited for the year ahead!  I can tell simply by meeting you and your children that we are going to have an amazing year together!  For those of you who could not make it today, I certainly look forward to meeting you soon!  Here's to a GREAT year!!

 

Introducing "Stanzi the Guinea Pig"...

~ You may recall reading about "Stanzi the Guinea Pig" in my profile.  Well, although she lives at home with my family when school is not in session, she lives in Room 412 with our class during the school year!  She is a wonderful little guinea pig and really makes our classroom a special place to be!  So today was the big day!  We clipped her nails, gave her a bath and cleaned her cage.  Then we delivered her to our classroom!  She was so happy to be back!  Enjoy the pictures from her big day!  Stanzi and I can't wait to see you all soon!   ~ Mrs. Moore

The Countdown Begins...

~ The countdown is truly on until this next kindergarten class begins our journey of learning, friendship and fun together! In less than two weeks, I will be able to put faces to all the names on "Mrs. Moore's Class List", and I can't wait!  It's truly going to be a wonderful year together in our kindergarten world...
