Good afternoon!
Today we we thought about who we might write a letter to. We picked one person to write on the board. We used our “kid spelling” to listen for the sounds we heard in the name we wanted to write. we wrote the letters we heard on the board. As we worked on this activity, we practiced the idea of writing for a specific audience. We also practiced listening for both consonant and vowel sounds.
K.W.1: Write for specific purposes and audiences
K.RF.4.3:Recognize the long and short sounds of the five major vowels


After a friend added some new materials to our bin this morning, several friends got to work in the art center. We tried cutting some of the cardboard into strips to see what the kids would do. We also added bottle caps to the mix of options to see what ideas would emerge. One friend had an idea to make a play ground. He used a box and a bottle cap from the materials bin, then pulled some yarn from our string jar. He asked if I could cut the string in half so the two sides were the same (a little early math naturally thrown into the building project). After that, he used some tape to make a swing set the set with the strings and cap.
Another pair of friends made superhero suits of armor that they could wear. One suit, which was made of cardboard and tape covered the maker from head to toe! Another suit came with a cape made of paper. The two friends put on their costumes and proudly showed them to classmates!
We have noticed a lot of leadership at the art table from our older friends. This morning the swing project was the result of a collaboration of ideas between a younger friends and an older friend who helped problem solve. What amazing brains these kids are building through this kind of experiences!




Friends explored a bit of early math during the welcome activity this morning. Friends were able to use our Montessori building set to create three dimensional geometric shapes like pyramids and cubes. They created other things as they joined the shapes. There were houses, roads and even dragons!




We hope you enjoy a few more pictures from our day!
