Good Afternoon!

PREK1 kids came to the sign in board where we focused on our one to one correspondence skills. Each friend found their name on a notecard and followed the directions on the back that would say something like this: “tape your name under the group with five items”.

K.NS.4: Perform one to one correspondence tasks.

We went one step further in PREK1 group where we worked on number identification. I had a stack of sentence strips and children had to find their name. On the back, it had a line of shapes. They had to count the shapes and find the number on the chalkboard where they taped the strip next to the number. A few older friends helped their younger friends identify their number!

K.NS.4: Perform one to one correspondence tasks.

This morning we set up a welcome activity that encouraged friends to measure the lines with colored counters and see how many would fit. Then we counted together to see.  We found the longest line held 39 counters. Younger kids enjoyed helping the older kids place the counters on the line.  As we worked together some of our friends became interested in sorting the colors, so we offered trays to help support the child lead portion of the project.  Many of the younger kids jumped in to help match the colors with the trays!

We harvested our carrots from the garden this morning, washed them in a pail of water…then ate them all!!

PREK2: Our group talked about the sense of touch today.  We each held a stone and a feather and paid close attention to how the felt in our hands.  We put all of the descriptive words we could think of on the board.  Then we read the story “Her Body Can”.
