Happy Friday!

It’s been a week full of transitions and new groups for some kids so today, we did a practice run for our PREK1 group sign in which will start next week! This group sign in is specifically geared towards our group of older peers. There is a wide range of ages even in this group so what each child is asked to do will be different dependent upon their readiness. There will be a daily question or activity that will be aligned with the FAB for the week, if applicable!

Today’s sign in asked children to find their name and then circle their name. Everyone was excited to officially sign in for the first time!

We read a book from our MACK collection titled, ‘Same Same But Different’. Throughout the story, the author and illustrator showed us how things can be the same but different. The two main characters lived in different parts of the world. They rode a school bus to school but the buses looked very different. They both had a tree house in their backyard but they looked very different.

As each child was called to roll up their mat, they were asked to share one thing that they see frequently in their neighborhood. Answers ranged from school buses to people walking their dogs to other houses!

Social Studies: K.3.6 Identify and compare similarities and differences in families, classmates, neighbors and neighborhoods, and ethnic and cultural groups.

Several friends have become interested in finger prints after talking about similarities and differences between people. Today we worked on a large class finger print art project. After we used ink to make finger prints, we used a magnifying glass to look closely and notice the differences in the lines and shapes in our finger prints.
