Good Afternoon!
We read, ‘The Color Monster’ in K/PREK1 group. Before we got to a specific color, friends shared what was coming up next! They really knew the layout of the story.
We started a two part activity in group. We had a conversation about verbs, specifically action verbs. I wrote down my example, which was walk, before each friend had the opportunity to share their action verb!
Tomorrow, we will create sentences using these verbs!
K.W.6. 1b: Verbs- Writing sentences that include verbs.
In PREK2 group, each friend got the chance to roll two dice. They added up the dice and figured out the total. When they arrived at the total, they found the number on a circle and flipped it over!
Miss Annastecia set up an art activity this morning that revolved around, ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ written by Eric Carle. Before diving into the activity, she shared with the kids at the table that Eric Carle uses tissue paper for his illustrations in his books.
Friends chose an illustration from the book and created their own tissue paper creation! A few friends chose the butterfly and caterpillar while others chose a specific fruit.
We saw a lot of pairs working together this morning! The activities that we observed ranged from ka-noodle, challenging puzzles (60 and 64 pieces), and war using a deck of cards.
Children gathered in the garden area to watch Miss Annastecia till the vegetable bed using a rake. As kids asked questions about general gardening, Evie was quick to answer them! She’s pretty knowledge about gardening! She also pitched in a little bit!
Needless to say, we got a little dirty this morning!

Have a wonderful evening!
