November 22, 2013

Hi!

Here is a glimpse of our week in the fish room:

Language Arts: The children went upstairs to 5P for buddies this week and they loved it! We did guided reading groups and read from our 'book barns' as well. Our shared reading book, What is a Huggles? by Joy Cowley focused on the sight word is and we practiced 1-1 correspondence where our spoken words matched the words we were pointing under as we read.  We wrote and illustrated about something we are thankful for.

Math: The children have been working on representing numbers using ten frames. Today we used the Promethean board to do it. We worked with cuisenaire rods and continue to work on number formation using the Letterschool app and our handwriting journals. The children also were introduced to the app Monkey Math and love it!

Science: Our apple is finally rotten! It took 60 days. Back in September, we had some super close estimations on how long it would take. The closest guesses were 52 and 59.
