Good Afternoon!
PREK1 friends came to sign in this morning where they were tasked on finding their name and coming up with a word that rhymed with a word they were given. William was given the word ‘sun’ and he said that ‘sun’ and ‘bun’ rhyme!
Later on in group, we read ‘The Cat In The Hat’ which offered up several opportunities to talk about rhyming words. I would randomly stop reading to see if they could identify the rhyming word that finished the sentence. They were able to fill in the missing word by using their knowledge of rhyming words and looking at the pictures that the illustrator drew.
K.RF.3.1: Identify and produce rhyming words.
In the are center we offered a shape building project. Several friends looked at the examples of shapes they could build. They either chose to build a traditional shape or create a shape of their own. We had a range of ideas from triangles to jack-rabbits! One friend created two triangles inside of a square and named it a “squareangle”.
PREK2: During group today we talked about all of the different shapes and practiced naming them. At the end of group we chose our favorite shape by name and put our name sticker next to (or on top of) it:)
