Parent Workshop #2

We recently held our second parent workshop of the school year.  The topic was "Mathematics in Kindergarten."  Every parent that attended the workshop received this information packet.  Inside was a copy of the  "child-friendly" CCSS, math vocabulary sheets, and a handful of templates for math games to be played at home. 

The workshop focused on the Counting and Cardinality CCSS.  Our purpose was to walk the parents through the standards as we demonstrated what the lesson looked like in the classroom.  We finished up with suggestions for the home and a sneak peak at the expectations of first grade (yeah, we want them to panic, just a 'lil bit). 

This is the agenda we used to plan out the workshop.
