We introduced another new color this week...RED. Ask your child about all the things that are red. We also enjoyed many great read aloud's this week. One of my favorites was Pout-Pout Fish. Top chefs talked about strategies they could use when they were feeling upset about something. All students agreed that we need to use our WORDS, to help one another with our different emotions. Pout- Pout Fish learns a great lesson in the story. Ask your child what they learned from the story.
Math - This week students got busy counting. Top chefs played a game called "Grab and Count". Students visited 4 stations with various math manipulative's. Students could only grab items using one hand. They then organized their items and counted them showing pictures and numbers to show their responses. Top Chefs are also in the process of working on a "Counting Book" using numbers 1-12. Students read the number word, match it to the number, and color the snap cubes to match. Another fun game to ask your child about is ''Guess My Number". We are starting out using numbers between 1-10, but once we really focus and listen to each others clues, we can go higher. :)
Content - Building our classroom community is a big part of our content. We are working on teamwork, and earning super stars for our efforts! We are being Bucket Fillers, and showing Kindness to everyone. We have been sharing in our morning meeting about our favorite things and what we are doing over the weekends with our family and friends. Students are using a strong voice to greet their neighbor, and having eye contact when they are speaking to one another. We are continuing to ask questions...Who, What, Where, When, and Why...I MUSTACHE ask you a question :)
