Happy Friday!

After having our weekly poetry session in K/PREK1, we read six sentences that were on the chalkboard. I demonstrated the first sentence. I used a marker to underline the uppercase/capital letters that I saw and circled the ending punctuation. After I circled the punctuation, I identified it to the group. Each friend had the opportunity to come up to the board after I read their sentence. If a friend was unsure whether or not a letter was uppercase or lowercase, we discussed it as a group.

K.W.6.2a: Capitalization—Capitalizing the first words in a sentence and the pronoun I.

K.W.6.2b: Punctuation—Recognizing and naming end punctuation.

In PREK2, each child got a picture of a food item with a number. By working together, children put food in numerical order.

Enjoy the pictures from our day!

Oatmeal Pancakes— several friends enjoyed them this morning so here’s the recipe.

1. Use leftover oatmeal (or fresh!). Add a little flour and either one or two eggs to get a batter like consistency. I add a little cinnamon but we’ve added blueberries before!

2. I use an ice cream scoop to make sure that the pancakes are the same in size. Brown each side and enjoy!
