Happy Monday!
These last few months have been very different and while we were at home earlier this year, all of the children received the book ‘The Invisible String’ in the mail. We LOVE this book. It does a great job at explaining that even though you’re not close to someone, they’re still in your hear: you’re connected to that person by an invisible string.
After we read the story in K group, each friend pulled a string from the pile in my hand and once everyone had a piece of string, we sorted the pieces from shortest to longest! Even by just an eyeball glance, children put the string pieces into the correct order.
K.M.1: Make direct comparisons of the length, capacity, weight, and temperature of objects, and recognize which object is shorter, longer, taller, heavier, warmer, cooler, or holds more.
In PREK2, children chose two objects: one from the tray and one from the black bucket. They held each item in their hand and told Miss Kim which object was heavier!
Children flocked to the welcome activity that revolved around various cardboard pieces, hammers, and golf tees. Children chose the cardboard piece they’d like to explore and used their hammer to pound the golf tees into the cardboard.
It was a fabulous fall morning outside and friends scattered about, diving into various activities.
Breakfast– Whole wheat toast with butter and fresh oranges.
Lunch– Whole wheat pasta with marinara sauce and shredded cheese, fresh apples, and fresh carrots.
PM snack– Whole milk yogurt with fresh oranges.
Wee Sprout– Fresh carrots.
Have a wonderful night!
