Good Afternoon!
Kindergarten sign in focused on identifying numbers that come before and after a specific number. Not only did children work on that but writing whole numbers up to 20 as well. We also talked about numbers such as 12 and 21 and which is which. Children will mix up the two so identifying ways to correctly state the number is important.
K.NS.3: Find the number that is one more than or one less than any whole number up to 20.
PREK1 group focused on addition problems where the total is 10. We used our fingers to correctly solve the problem. Eliza not only solved her problem but also her other two peers’ problem before they got to the board!
K.CA.4: Find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number for any number from 1 to 9 (e.g. by using objects or drawings), and record the answer with a drawing or an equation.
We added the final inhabitance to our tank this week; two angel fish and several colorful mollies. Everyone enjoyed watching them!
It’s easy to see what we have been doing in the classroom this week based on our kids journal entries! One friend made a “family of planets” and another made “an angler fish that ate a jellyfish”. Kids learn language/writing best when they draw on experiences that are meaningful to them!
On the building rug, kids used our peg board to make shapes with rubber bands. Kids got very interested in criss-crossing shapes in order to make “webs” or “traps”. They turned it into a cooperative team effort which we always encourage!
In the art center, we offered some sensory activities. Things got messy, which of course the kids loved!
We hope you enjoy a few more pictures!
