Good Afternoon!

We read, ‘Stick Man’ in K/PREK1 group! Mack realized really quickly that the book is full of rhyming words. We identified words that rhymed throughout the story.

When the story was done, we played a memory game using opposite words. First, we had a conversation about the word ‘opposite’ and took time to define it.

This group of children LOVE a good memory game! Some of the opposite words we found were in/out, up/down, open/close, and fast/slow.

K.RV.2.2: Identify and sort pictures of objects into categories (e.g., colors, shapes, opposites).

A new theme was added to the housekeeping area this morning: superheroes! Friends are all about using their imagination, fairytales, and fictional play.

Insert: interest in superheroes! Superhero attire was added to the housekeeping area along with a unique hand scanner that children can use.

A group of friends have been interested in robots so Miss Annastecia started a robot art project with them using cardboard. Children were able to have an ongoing conversation throughout the experience on what they should add to the robot. They are in the process of making it and once it’s complete, they’ll use paper mache to cover the robot!

Breakfast– Whole Grain Cheerios with fresh pears.

Lunch– Refried beans and melted shredded cheese on whole wheat tortilla, fresh cantaloupe, and fresh cucumber/carrots.

PM snack– Whole wheat bagel with cream cheese and block cheddar cheese.

Wee Sprout– Fresh carrots/cucumber.

Have a lovely night.
