It was a busy week with several Music rehearsals. Students are excited and ready for you to watch them perform in the Holiday Show on Wednesday @ 9:00am. This week we learned about the jobs of several community helpers. Our main focus was on the job of a firefighter. Students learned how firefighters keep us safe and are prepared to go out to respond to a fire at all times. Skills we worked on this week:
This week students learned about the places in their community. On Monday, we discovered a present in our classroom with an elf inside! Students have enjoyed spotting Elfie when they arrive each morning. We also turned our dramatic play into a gingerbread house!
Skills we worked on this week include: - Second Step Social Skills- Managing Anger - Subtraction with Pete the Cat - Patterning - Ordering - Letter sounds and beginning sounds in words - Writing letters - Using positional words to decribe the location of an object - Subtraction stories - How to stay safe while crossing the street This coming up week, we will focus on workers in our community. We ended our Farm Unit this week and will begin our Community themed unit on Monday. Students enjoyed acting out "The Three Little Pigs" with masks and props. We took several videos of students acting out the story and will post them next week so families can see. Students have learned that many of the things we eat come from the farm. They also learned about the process of getting those things to the grocery store where they can be purchased. Students became a little "pirate obsessed" this week after learning about subtraction, as we listened to a song "When You Subtract with a Pirate". Many students wanted to make pirate hats in the Art center during Center Time. We ended our Farm Unit with an activity where students helped make butter using heavy whipping cream and tasted the butter on a piece of bread. Students loved the butter! Skills we learned this week:
