Good Afternoon!

We kicked off our Wednesday by completing our sign in for our PREK1 group which revolved around states. Yesterday, we identified the city that each friend lives in and today, we focused on the state. This lead into friends asking questions about other states that they’ve been to. We used a map of the United States to identify states such as Michigan, Oregon, New York, New Hampshire, and Florida! We looked at the distance from these states to where we live.

One of our group members became so curious that she started asking about the world so while I was making lunch, we intermediately looked at the world map where we identified places like London and India!

Social Studies: K.3.2 Identify maps and globes as ways of representing Earth and understand differences between a map/globe.

We used one of our favorite building materials in the tuff tray this morning but we added a fun extension to it: bells! Since the bells are magnetic, children were able to use them in their magnatile creation! A friend started building a church and used a big bell on the top while sharing, “It’s like the church down the street!”. Down the street from Wee Friends, there’s a church and everyday at noon, the big bell at the top of the church chimes which children always love to hear!

Miss Ashley led our young PREK2 group today and immediately, friends asked to do their yoga/breathing poses that they do before reading a book. They were able to demonstrate several poses, including butterfly pose, to Miss Ashley! They are clearly absorbing (AND LOVE!) this routine in their group time.
