Happy Monday!

In K/PREK1, we read a story that was new. Most of it had never read it before so we started with a web on the chalkboard before diving into the story.

We observed the front cover which was a picture of a big pumpkin that looked to be rolling down a hill, close to squishing a frog and cat.

Using our prediction skills, a few friends shared what they thought might happen in the story. N shared that she thought that the pumpkin may squish the frog as it rolled down the hill. When we came to this part, Franklin raised his hand and commented, “Hey! N was right!”

K.RL.2.4: Make predictions about what will happen in a story.

In PREK2, each member got to answer the question, “Who took the cookies from the cookie jar?”

Miss Kim read most of the story and before it was finished, Miss Kim asked the question. Children used the context clues as well as what they had read so far before answering the question.

The art table was buzzing with excitement as children from all ages engaged in art. Jack used a marker to create with while Sophia and Chloe added another element to their drawing. They used drawing books and chose specific animals to draw. Chloe was ecstatic when she found a horse page and she was quick to put marker to paper.

“Children are great imitators. So give them something great to imitate.”
