Good Afternoon!
Our PREK1 kiddos came to the sign in board this morning where they solved a simple addition problem. After adding 7 and 3 together, they found the number 10 and wrote their name under it.
Later on in group, we continued to work on adding as we read, ‘How Do You Spend?’. Throughout the story, the main character spends money on needs or wants and we added up the numbers as we went. We talked about the meaning of the following words: want, need, cheap, and expensive.
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 or 5=4+1)
Children were engaged this morning at the circle table as they explored patterns using unifix cubes. Arthur and Hannah used the gray tray to create a complex color pattern that required a lot of attention to detail as they found out took a lot of concentration while younger friends used the activity to work on their one to one correspondence skills and counting as well as fine motor skills as they hooked the cubes together.
We were given gorgeous weather this morning so we headed out a little early and soaked up all of the time we had!
Breakfast– Whole wheat toast with peanut butter and fresh apple.
Lunch– Whole wheat pasta with shredded chicken, fresh pineapple/orange/apple, and fresh green beans/cucumber/pepper.
PM snack– Whole milk yogurt with granola.

Have a wonderful night!
