Good Afternoon!

We circled back around to patterns this morning for our PREK1 sign in. Children came to the board where they found their name and identified their pattern. When they came to the end of their pattern, they said aloud what came next. Some friends had to take color into consideration when finishing their pattern while others took color and shape into consideration. Not only were children able to explore patterns but we also worked on shape identification.

K.CA.5: Create, extend, and give an appropriate rule for simple repeating and growing patterns with numbers and shapes.

This morning, we continued working on our leaf book project.  Friends that made their pages yesterday, worked on the cover today.  We had some questions about what to title the book.  We looked at examples of books in the classroom and noticed how the title and the pictures on the front of the book tell us something about what is going to be inside the book.  We thought of our own titles that would give the reader some idea about what the book would be about.  We did the same with our illustrations.  Other kids who had not started their book, created their pages today. 

PREK2: During group today, we read the story “Patty’s Pumpkin Patch”.  After the story, we came up to the board to decide if we would like to pick a large or a small pumpkin.  Some friends were even able to express why they preferred a certain size.  One friend shared that he would choose a small pumpkin because he would like to be able to pick it up!

Breakfast: Overnight oatmeal with cinnamon and fresh cantaloupe.

Lunch: Farm fresh scrambled eggs, whole wheat flatbread, fresh cantaloupe/banana, and fresh carrots/tomatoes.

PM Snack: Hummus with tortilla chips.

Wee Sprouts: Fresh bell peppers/carrots.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
