Selfless Challenge!

I LOVE Christmas!!! It's full of love, happiness and celebration! 

I found out that Krista from Creative Clips is making a Selfless Challenge and I couldn't resist to join!! 

So, here are my sELFless actions of the week:

1. I left several post-its to my love ones around the house!

2. I sent a postcard to my sister and nieces. They live in my beautiful Puerto Rico, and I don't see them since June. :(

3. I made a Freebie for my fans!

Come back next week for more sELFless actions!

If you want to spread kindness everywhere visit Krista and join her challenge!

Have fun!

Happy Thanksgiving

I am ready for my Thanksgiving break and enjoy time with my family!!!  But, first I want to share the activities we did in class the last couple of days!

We started the week reading the book "Thanks for Thanksgiving" by Julie Markes.

After we read the story, my students wrote all the things they all thankful

 for and made a fun craftivity! You can find this Craftivity {HERE}!

 We also read the story "Thanksgiving on Plymouth Plantation" and watched videos from Scholastic. Later, my stories wrote sentences comparing themselves to the Indians. :)

It was a great week! Now, I am ready to spend a wonderful week with my children and husband!

Have a great week!

November Bilingual Blog Hop

I am very happy to join a wonderful group of teachers for this blog hop! We will be sharing great resources and all of them for FREE from November 7-9!

I want to share with you a very useful and helpful resource that I started using for guided reading. 

I send this folder home every day with a book. The folder includes a note for the parents, some reading strategies, goals for the next  meeting, reading log, fluency rubric and a student self-evaluation.

You can find it {HERE} for FREE during this blog hop! 

I hope you are having a great year and have a restful and wonderful Thanksgiving!

Senses

Last week was all about learning about senses! Here are some pics of the week.

My little ones identified the five senses using our friend "el Sr. Papá". I put some Velcro  on each part, and it was easy to pull it apart and put it back together.

They also made their own "Sr. Papa" and identified the five senses.

You can find this activity {HERE}

We made some experiments to put our senses in action. 

Bells-Hearing

Soft Cushions-Touch

This experiment was the best! They were able to use all their senses! They LOVED it! 

If you want to try this experiment here are the materials you need:

-vinegar

-balloon

-baking soda

-small bottle

Fill part of the ballon with baking soda and half of your bottle with vinegar. Put the ballon on the bottle and let the baking soda go inside the bottle. The gas will inflate the ballon! 

Have fun!

Fire Safety Week

We learned all about Fire Safety! Here are some pics of all the fun and learning.

We started the lesson writing down all the things my little ones knew about firefighters.

Then we made this cute craft! It was perfect to review numbers 1-5 and some  rhyming.

 We also reviewed the steps we need to follow and the number you need to call in case of an emergency!

It was a great week!

Have fun!

All about matter!

The last couple of weeks my Kindergarten class has been learning about the different states of matter. 

Here are some pics of our last couple of days!

They made a book with examples for the different states of matter.

They classified pictures as solid, liquid & gas.

You can find some of these activities {HERE}

We learned the different properties of liquid and how cooling can change it!

We also explored how matter can be change by heating.

Here is a pic of our bulletin board!

Have a great weekend!
