Good Afternoon!
We kicked off our week by working with shapes for our PREK1 sign in. Each kiddo came up to the board where we read the shape under their name. We read the shape name and found it on the board. They taped their name inside of the shape.
K.4.1: Identify and describe geometric objects: circle, triangle, square, rectangle, diamond, trapezoid, hexagon, octagon, parallelogram, sphere, and cube.
We explored two and three dimensional shapes and how they can fit together this morning. At the round table, we chose from circles, triangles, rectangles and squares as well as the three dimensional versions…cylinders, pyramids, cubes and prisms. As we created our buildings, we looked for each shape and talked about how they related. For instance, one friend built a “tree house”. We talked about seeing both circles and cylinders, squares and cubes, in the design.
In the art center, friends created patterns and mosaics using a sand tray of circles/ovals or rectangles/squares. We talked about the differences in what we could create with these two shapes.
In the kitchen, friends enjoyed baking with Ms. Ashley. We helped measure flour, salt and baking powder to make some delicious banana muffins!
We hope you enjoy a few more pictures from our day!
