Hammond kindergarteners are beginning discussions about healthy eating choices as we begin to study Nutrition. We will learn that healthy habits include getting plenty of rest, eating healthy foods, brushing our teeth, and exercising. This unit of study is always a favorite!
Sight Word Study for the Week of October 7th
Be sure to look back at our first post for ideas and activities to reinforce these words. Don't forget to practice the sight words we have previously studied. We are learning how to make sentences with all of the words we know. We can even write them!
