Welcome to September!

Happy birthday, Evie!! Evie celebrated her 4th birthday today! We are so happy we were able to celebrate with her.

FYI: if you’re looking for a fun and new snack at home, Evie brought in frozen watermelon popsicles and our friends LOVED them.

This is how Evie’s mom made them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8qJMfuriTI

Kindergarteners sign in this morning revolved around objects in different arrays: specifically a rectangular array, circular array, and in a line. When Sophia got to the circular array, she said, “Oh wow! I am going to place my finger here so I know where I started.”

K.NS.5: Count up to 20 objects arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle. Count up to 10 objects in a scattered configuration.

We read, ‘Here Comes The Big Parade’ in our K group. The book focused on every uppercase and lowercase letter in the alphabet. On each page, that letter was prevalent so we talked not only about the letter but the sound that it makes. Before heading to the journal table, we plugged in some missing letters that were on the chalkboard. We pointed to the letters together and if we came to a blank spot, friends had to figure out who had the missing letter and tape it up in the line.

K.RF.2.4: Identify and name all uppercase and lowercase letters of the alphabet.

In PREK2, friends matched numbers to a group of items. For example, Daniel had the number 9 and his job was to find the picture with nine items!

Breakfast– Corn Crunch and fresh pineapple/strawberries.

Lunch– Homemade whole wheat waffles, turkey, fresh oranges, and fresh cherry tomatoes.

PM snack– Evie’s birthday treat: frozen watermelon and whole wheat bagel with peanut butter.

Wee Sprout– Fresh cherry tomatoes.

Have a wonderful night!
