I Learned It In Kindergarten By Tanner Hagen

 Writing and math ready?  Are you surprised to read that these 5 and 6 year olds are already writers and math heads?  Well read on then!  Kindergarten is learning how to write sentences with their sight words and by sounding out words. They use their forearms to sound out the beginning, middle and end sounds.  (Hope that word fits those little arms.) They are also building a writing wall!  Ask any kindergartener about ‘Zoo Phonics’ - it’s a terrific way to remember letters and sounds.  Then they put all this know how together by writing sentences! What a huge learning leap! And they are having fun while doing it!
 “Here’s a closer look at their morning: They do their language arts from 8:30 to 9:30.  Then they get to rest their fingers for a little bit before they jump into math action at 10:00 to 10:45. That’s a lot of brain power!
 These same kindergarteners are also working with numbers! And that’s not all! For math they are doing addition and subtraction.   Here’s some of the ways they are learning to add and subtract.
They are using the smart board to play math games and write equations.   This is everyone’s favorite technology!  It’s so much fun you can forget you’re learning, too!  But don’t worry, there is plenty of good old fashioned adding and subtracting of single digits, also.  Are you surprised at how much they learn in Kindergarten?  Well I guess that’s part of that famous saying.  They are working really hard   I’m glad I can let them shine!
