Students in Mrs. Wren and Miss Jackman’s kindergarten class at Coal City Early Childhood Center showcased their learning style with an ABC Fashion Show on Sept. 26.
During the first weeks of school, the students are introduced to each letter of the alphabet, the sound it makes, and a variety of vocabulary that begins with that sound.
To showcase what they have learned, the kindergarten students created paper bag vests, each one representing a letter of the alphabet and the embellishments featured items that started with the letter assigned to the student. There were alligators and giraffes, cats and monkeys and even Santa Claus displayed on the custom made vests.
Each student walked the red carpet and shared their letter and its sound to their invited guests that sat in rows along the runway. From A to Z the students strolled down the red carpet and when every letter was presented they sang their ABC song.
The teachers shared that in kindergarten they work with the students on identifying upper and lowercase letters and the sounds each letter makes as this helps the kids become amazing readers and writers.
