Fun Day!

JKs had a great day!
We began the day with morning circle time and healthy snacks.
In Language Arts we reviewed all the letter sounds learned so far: a, e, i, o, u, t and l.
Then students completed a page where they traced and wrote upper/lower case L. After that we made lions using paper plate, painting with sponge, used q-tip to draw the whiskers and googly eyes. Take a look at our lions:

We also turned ourselves into Ls:




In Math students completed the following page:
 
For some students it was a bit challenging but with guidance, everyone did it!
In the afternoon we reviewed the Brown Bear story and made our own Brown Bear books.
After that we had centers, story time and Gym class.
Today we read the following books in class:
 


This book introduces children to concepts like respect, camaraderie, teamwork and the pleasure of playing sports and games for the fun of it.
The Mommy Book celebrates all different kinds of moms and highlights the many reasons they are so special. Whether your mom goes fishing or goes shopping, whether she works at home or in a big building, whether she has short hair or big hair, Todd Parr assures readers that no matter what kind of mommy you have, every mother is special in her own unique way.
With his trademark bold, bright colors and silly scenes, Todd Parr explains that while no two mothers are alike, "all mommies want you to be who you are!" Perfect for young children just beginning to read, The Mommy Book is designed to encourage early literacy, enhance emotional development, celebrate multiculturalism, promote character growth and strengthen family relationships.
 
 
Have a great evening everyone!
