Good Afternoon!
We read, ‘Be Glad Your Nose Is On Your Face’ in K group which is a huge collection of funny poems! Each friend got a turn to pick a poem before we started in on the activity for group time. There were 9 community helpers that were taped to the chalkboard. We read them aloud and after, I read a description of a community helper and by working together, we were able to match each helper to their description!
Social Studies: K.2.1 Give examples of people who are community helpers (inside the classroom and outside the classroom) and describe how they help us.
It was quite the busy morning! Friends requested beads + pipe cleaners as well as the art easel. We saw older friends take their younger peers under their wing and help them with these activities—one of the many benefits of a multi-age classroom!
The rest of our morning was a mixture of inside time where our younger friends got in some wonderful gross motor activity while the outside offered up more of a quiet down time. Miss Kim brought out a big blanket and some of our favorite books for a quieter activity in the shade!
