Our PREK1 sign in had three steps in it today! First, children had to find their name on a domino. Once they found their domino, they counted each side of the domino and added each side together. Finally, they found their addition equation on the sign in board that matched their domino and wrote the total of their equation and signed under the equation.
K.CA.1-2: Solve real-world problems, objects, or drawings that involve addition and subtraction within 10. Demonstrate the equation (e.g. 5=3+2 and 5=4+1).
This morning most of the class enjoyed some time creating and playing in “box town”. Some friends painted boxes and made dolls to play with inside of them. Others used empty plain boxes to build “sky scrapers”. The group added magnetic tile roads and toy trucks to the town. Everyone had a great time playing together! Yet another use for recycled materials! There’s no end to the possibilities!
Several friends enjoyed loose parts sensory and building activities at the round table. Some chose to use the activity for calm focus or pattern making. Others worked with a partner and enjoyed imaginative play making birthday cakes. Everyone was able to create what they needed from the materials provided.
PREK2 journals continue to advance. Drawings are becoming more sophisticated along with the stories and descriptions. Its wonderful to listen to all of these ideas coming to life as pictures and stories! There has definitely been a contagious rainbow theme lately :). Everyone has a different take on that theme however, and creates something unique!
