Good Afternoon!

PREK1 kiddos kicked off their week by working with numbers for their sign in activity. Each child had a specific number line where one number was missing. They worked at identifying the numbers that were present and then tried to figure out which number was missing. Once they figured out the missing number, they picked out the number from a larger group of numbers.

K.NS.3: Find the number that is one more than or one less than any whole number up to 20.

The science area was buzzing with excitement surrounding new toys and a few new homes for our current toys! The contents of the light table were switched this morning which instantly drew excitement. Asher chose to lay out the wooden cubes on the ground to explore the contents. He took each wooden box, shook it gently, and shared with a peer that was close to him how loud or soft each box sounded.

Friends explored letters and word building at the welcome activity this morning.  The kids could choose from a “Class Name” tray where they could search for letters to spell class names, or they could choose the “Word Tray” searching for letters to spell simple words.

The art center was busy with a variety of self driven projects.  There was a lake with several child made boats to sail on it.  There were also a few roads made as ramps or flat highways.

Most of the class rotated through the building rug at some point in the day to explore what they could do with our new “hollow blocks” and “wooden trucks”.  There were clearly many ideas and great team work!

PREK2: At group we read the story “Thankyou Earth”.  After the story, we thought about what we appreciated about the outdoors.  We made a class list of our ideas.

Breakfast– Whole wheat toast with butter and banana.

Lunch– Whole wheat pasta with shredded beef, fresh pineapple/strawberries, and fresh cucumber/carrot.

PM snack– Whole milk yogurt with banana.

Wee Sprout– Fresh cucumber/pepper/carrot.

Have a wonderful night.
