Happy Friday!
Kindergarten sign in centered around groups of words and choosing the one word in each group that didn’t belong. For example, the words head, foot, hand, and blue were grouped together. Children had to choose which word didn’t belong into the group. Daniel thought about it and said, “blue since it’s a color!”. After Daniel finished sign in this morning, he sighed and shared, “That one was HARD!” 
K.DA.1: Identify, sort, and classify objects by size, number, and other attributes. Identify objects that do not belong to a particular group and explain the reasoning used.
We read, ‘Today, I Feel Silly’ in K/PREK1 group which is a book from our MACK collection! Afterwards, we turned our attention to the chalkboard where various groups of shapes were drawn on a piece of paper. For example problem, there were two groups of shapes. Children worked together to count each group and then answer a question such as, “Which group has the most shapes?”
K.NS.9: Use correctly the words for comparison, including: one and many; none, some and all; more and less; most and least’ and equal to, more than, and less than.
Our welcome activity centered around food! (our FAVORITE topic)
Children took the pictures of food and sorted them into six groups: meat and eggs, cheese and dairy, vegetables, fruit, bread and grains, and sweets.
Breakfast– Brown rice cakes with peanut butter and banana.
Lunch– Chicken breast (lunchmeat) on whole wheat bread, fresh pineapple/apple, and fresh cucumber/cherry tomatoes.
PM snack– Pretzels and cheddar block cheese.
Wee Sprout– Fresh cucumber/cherry tomatoes.
Have a wonderful weekend!
