Thursday
Circle Time- Click on the video to watch Mrs. Ernst lead a Circle Time lesson including- calendar, Number Bear, the letter j, and a lesson on counting and number matching. After watching the lesson, children will complete a sort on their own. In your supply bag is a two page sort. There is a page of birthday and Christmas themed pictures and a page with two boxes titled "birthdays" and "Christmas". You or your child can cut the pictures out and sort them into the appropriate box. They should put the pictures that represent birthdays under the heading birthdays and the pictures that represent Christmas go under the Christmas heading. Children can glue the pictures into the boxes. While they are working, you can ask them why they are sorting the pictures the way they are. Please place the paper back into their supply bag so we can see their sort.
Story Time- Click on the video to watch Mrs. Nolan read Too Many Tamales. After listening to the story children will draw a picture of their favorite family celebration. Ask your child, "What family celebration do you like to celebrate?". You can give them ideas if needed (birthdays? Halloween? Christmas? Fourth of July?). Using the blank white paper provided in your supply bag, children can draw their favorite celebration. Encourage your child to think about the shapes of things before they draw. After drawing, ask your child to tell you about their picture. Write their response on the paper. Please place their writing back into their supply bag so we can see their work!
