Good Afternoon!

After reading ‘Curious George Goes Camping’, our pre-k/k group looked around the science area for several items. When a child called out an item, we worked as a team to figure out how many syllables that word had. The first several words that we came up with were either one or two syllable words.

I asked the group to look around the room to find an item with three syllables. After a few seconds, Lucy shouted, “calendar!”. We also were able to write ‘butterfly’ under the three syllable section! Before going over the calendar, a friend commented, “We found more one syllable words than anything!”.

K.RF.3.2: Orally segment words into syllables.

Puzzles challenged us.

Magnatiles and trio blocks allowed us to use our imaginations.
