It is the beginning of a new year and the beginning of new things happening in Kindergarten. One of many new and exciting things is our Calendar Books. This is an idea I discovered on Kathleen Pedersen's Kindergarten website. Unfortunately, I did not come across this fabulous idea until just recently so next year I plan to introduce Calendar Books at the beginning of the school year. We do our Calendar Book activities every morning to reinforce our calendar skills, patterning skills and counting skills. Here is a peek inside....
Each student has their own book. I keep them in tubs at the front of the room.
We are learning the months of the year and our Kindergarten friends' birthdays.
These are our tally marks for each day we are in school for the month.
Counting each day we are in school for the entire year!!
Keeping track of our days---blue days are school days --- red days are days we are not in school.
These are our January patterns We do a pattern a week.
