Mrs. Kok’s Blog

Today our speech lesson was about few and many.   First we used construction paper turkeys and talked about few and many feathers.  Then we made cupcake turkeys and got to choose if our turkey would have few or many feathers (candy corn).

Just a quick note to SAVE THE DATE for our 2009 Georgetown Holiday program!

Although it seems like a long ways away, it will be here before you know it.  So mark it on your calendar!

My name is Becky Kok and my hobby is running.  I have been running since I joined the track team in middle school and am one of those crazy people that actually enjoys it.  This blog entry is part of the October Scavenger Hunt.

This week at horseback riding we learned how to saddle a horse.  We started riding outside but the rain forced us back into the barn.  Here are some more pictures of  us being cowboys and cowgirls!

Our class went to its first horseback riding lesson yesterday.  First we were fitted for helmets and then we learned how to groom the horses.  Once the instructors saddled them for us we got to lead them outside and ride!!!

PICTURE DAY!!

Kindergarten- Monday September 21st

Over Labor Day my husband and I went to Mackinaw Island.  We biked around the island, went golfing, made more than one stop at Kilwins for carmel apples, and watched the MI game (GO BLUE)!  We also hunted for the crack in the island-not easy to find but worth the search

Carmel Apples are my FAVORITE!!

Please bring these things on the first day of school.
-Horseback Riding Forms
-Change of clothes to be left at school

Welcome back everyone! I am so excited to start another school year! The All School Open House is on September 2 from  6:30-7:30.  Students in my room who are in Kindergarten should attend this open house only.  I hope to see you all there!

For the last 6 weeks our class has been going to gymnastics at Horizon’s Complex.  Our instructor, Ms. Julene, taught us to tumble, jump on the trampoline, and stretch.  We also went in the foam pit, on a three person swing, and did many fun obstacle courses!  On the last day of class we all received ribbons and certificates!
