Good Afternoon!
In pre-k/k group group, we read a classic story: ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’. Throughout the story, we noticed that the caterpillar ate different amounts of food on different days. So, after the story was finished, each member of the group got one notecard. On each notecard, there was a day listed as well as what the caterpillar ate. We started with ‘Sunday’ and went from there, putting the days in the correct order.
Social Studies: K.1.5 Explain that calendars are used to represent days of the week and months of the day.
Blank calendar pages were made available at the art area so children could explore them. The first thing that children did was highlight or block out Saturdays and Sundays which we do in pre-k/k group! We know these days to be ‘stay at home day’s’ so by highlighting them in group, we know which day’s we stay at home as opposed to coming to Wee Friends.
Our outside time was absolutely glorious! We were quick to ask for the bikes which we rode all morning long. Children who ride the balance bikes balance between speed and making sure that they are balanced on their bikes. Our speeds been picking up on the bikes because our confidence is growing!
