This week, students continued to learn about print concepts. Students were introduced to sentences as groups of words that share an idea. STudents were shown that all sentences begin with an upper case letter and end in a period (we will get into more end marks later). Students demonstrated how to look for the end of a sentence by finding periods in big books and in an online magazine. Students then practiced independently by looking for periods in their books and magazines. Students used highlighter tape to mark each period they found.

I love teaching kindergarten literacy at STEM! It is amazing to be a part of the reading and writing growth of a kindergarten student. You get to see kids move from knowing some letters and sounds to being enthusiastic readers and young authors. Archives
