Happy Monday!

On Friday in K/PREK1, we read ‘Miss Nelson Is Missing’. Children enjoyed it so much that today, we read the second story in the series, “Miss Nelson Came Back’. There were several times throughout the story where we predicted what would happen next as children hadn’t read the story before!

Before we completed our calendar activity, we discussed punctuation and the difference forms we use.

I read a sentence at a time and children had to say if we should put a period, exclamation point, or question mark at the end. Friends listened to my voice to distinguish between an exclamation point and period. “Oh, your voice is high and excited so it’s an exclamation point!”

K.W6.2b: Punctuation– Recognizing and naming end punctuation.

In PREK2, children took various objects and sorted them into two different groups: magnetic and not magnetic.

Penny and Grady used dominos and colorful counters to create various displays, buildings, and games.

First, Grady and Penny took the dominos and built a tower where they placed only green bears on their structure, creating a game called ‘Tower of Doom’.

Next, they tried to emulate each other as they built the same structures. Conversation was constant as the structures kept falling down. They talked about how to make the structures more stable and strong but since they were building on the table with thin dominos, they had to rebuild many times!

Breakfast– Whole wheat toast with butter and fresh apples/pears.

Lunch– Whole wheat pasta with shredded chicken and butter, fresh cantaloupe, and fresh carrots.

PM snack– Whole milk yogurt with granola.

Wee Sprout– Fresh pepper/carrots.

Have a wonderful night!
