September 22-26: What's Happening in Kindergarten This Week?

This past week in kindergarten we learned all about different kinds of jobs.  We talked about jobs that adults can have, and jobs that a child can have. Some jobs are inside and some jobs are outside. Some jobs are for money and some jobs we can do to be a volunteer.  Our students got to think about what they would like to be when they grow up and what they can do now.  We also talked more about nouns and began learning that an action is a verb.  It is amazing what a 5 year old can learn.  Our little K-Crew kids are all on a great voyage of learning.  Take a look at what we will be learning this week on the K-Crew ship.
