Good Afternoon!
Our 12 week FAB cycle has come to an end so we’ve taken this week to go back and extend or reteach FAB’s from earlier on in the school year. Today’s kindergarten sign in focus was shapes, specificially the number of sides on a shape. There were four groups: shapes with 0 sides, 2 sides, 3 sides, and 4 sides. They had to draw as many shapes as they could in each category. When they came to the 2 sided shape category, a few of them shared, “There aren’t any shapes with 2 sides!”
The welcome activity was popular as children took turns sorting holiday colored manipulatives. Using a plate that was split into three sections, friends sorted the materials by color.
Later on in the morning, magnatiles were put out at the circle table but with an added feature: bells! Several children built a magnatile structure but used the bells to add detail to their creature.
Breakfast– Toasted oatmeal squares with fresh apples.
Lunch– Brown rice with shredded turkey and butter, fresh watermelon, and fresh pepper/cucumber.
PM snack– Birthday treat: homemade banana bread, starfruit, and cheese slices.
Wee Sprout– Fresh cucumber/pepper.
Have a great night!
