Good Afternoon!
What a FANTASTIC Tuesday!
In K group, we finished our chart where we filled in the vertices that each shape had. We marked where each vertex was on the shapes and then wrote the number next to it. Friends quickly noticed that the number of sides was the same as the number of vertices!
K.G.2: Compare shapes using informal language to describe their similarities, differences, and parts (e.g., number of sides, length of sides, and vertices).
In PREK2 group, children had a great conversation about authors and illustrators and what their job is when it comes to making a book! Children used a few specific books for reference.
Friends quickly came to the art table where they explored shapes by using sticks! This activity was able to be extended for our older friends too. Most children used the sticks to make various shapes such as square, rectangle, triangle, and diamond. The extension was to draw that shape on their paper! Friends chatted about the number of sides that each shape had throughout the activity.
