| Pattern Crowns |
Wow! The children have learned so much in the last couple of weeks! I am so proud of how well they are doing! We incorporated our Math Rotations into our schedule this week. During math time each child visits me in a small group and completes two other activities. Did you see our pattern crowns? The crowns were a rotation activity. Other activities include games and using manipulatives to practice skills we are learning. The students did great. One of the benefits of our new full day program is that I am able to pull students in small groups for both Reading and Math! Another exciting component of a full day is that we can incorporate Social Studies and Science (Social Science). We are studying ocean life. We have read some non-fiction books and learned that many informational books label their illustrations so the students are doing the same thing in one of our Literacy Rotations. We are also working on creating our very own ocean mural as we learn about various animals.
One thing that we did not get to this week was our Book Bags! Those should be ready to go home next week. Students will bring home books that are introduced in class to practice reading them at home. You will be amazed at how the five to ten minutes you take to sit and help them practice reading these books will accelerate their learning! Take a look below at what we will be doing next week and have wonderful long weekend!
