Good Afternoon!

Our PREK1 friends have been engaging in a unique sign in during the morning time specific to what we’re working on that week. Today, we started talking about syllables and how to count them. We introduced them by counting the syllables in our names. We counted them but there’s another way to count syllables and that’s placing your hand on your chin to see how many times to moves when you say a word.

After reading, ‘Caps For Sale’, in PREK1 group, we charted our names based on syllables. Each friend got to choose either a friend or teacher in class to add to our chart! We counted the syllables in their name and wrote it under the correct group.

PREK2: Today we read the book “Chick a Chick a Boom Boom” which helps us learn and recognize our letters. After the book, everyone came up to the board and circled the first letter in their name. We practiced the sound that letter made. There were a lot of circles around the letter A!

We continued Tadpole journals for those who didn’t start one yet.  We continued talking about how to “observe” and draw what we see as well as how to verbalize what we see.
