Happy Friday!

In large group, we read ‘Rumble in the Jungle’ which lead us to count the syllables in each of the animals that were a main focus in the story. When we were almost done, a kindergartener said, “Hey! There are three animals so far that have two syllables!”. Hippopotamus was a challenging word for our friends as we really had to focus to find all five syllables in the word.

Our ‘Music Garden’ class started this morning lead by Miss Melinda! It’s a fifteen week class that eight of our children are apart of. The fifteen week class will focus on all aspects of music.

While the Music Garden class was going on, the rest of our friends occupied themselves with various activities.

Anna and Maddie matched uppercase letters to lowercase letters using the cardboard box activity. Afterwards, they worked together to find the syllables in several words using clip cards. Anna was having difficulty with the three syllable words so Maddie helped her by showing her how she counts syllables.
