In Writing we worked on letters Ww
& Pp. We talked about all the words that start with our letters of
the week. We also drew a picture and wrote a paragraph about "If I
Were President." Kennedy and Zoi were excited to talk about what they
would look like as president.
In Math we worked on More and Less. We first practiced on the
white board then progressed to our worksheets. We also played the
number movement game, where the children had to find the appropriate
number and do the appropriate number movement activity. Taj, Caden,
Molly, Taylor, Rowan and Olive did so good recognizing the number and
doing the appropriate movement activity.
Ms. Stacy read "So You Want to be President", "Scrambled States of
America",and "America the Musical". Olive's dad Stephen came in to
visit us and he read "Duck for President and he bought our class a
special book, "Knuffle Bunny." The children loved having a dad visit!
In
Reading we are also learning one of the first steps to reading,
blending sounds and learning sight words, for example, in is it to the
I a am. They all are catching on to the basic skill of reading very
quickly. It is so awesome to see all their progress!
In Art we
were busy. We made penny puppets, popsicle stick log cabins, Taj,
Sean, Dillon and Logan thought it was super cool to build their own log
cabin. Boys love to build. We also created the American Flag, and put
together a book about George Washington.
In Social
Studies we talked about the 1st, 16th, 35th and the 44th presidents. We
also talked about what state the president lives in and the color of
his house. We talked about what the presidents duties are and the name
of the plane he flies in. The whole class loved to learn about our past
and current president and they really thought being the president would
be tons of fun.
In Music we had an obstacle course and hula hoop passing to fun
music. Music time is so great for the class to get their wiggles out!
We had a great week in Pre-K, we have 9 marbles left to earn for another fun Friday!!!
