We're Back in our classroom

WE'RE BACK!!!! Rocking school in our awesome classroom. So great to have all of our things to play with and learn with and have all of our options AND the playground.

REMINDER..... each morning we ask the kids if they are having their own lunch from home or if they want the school lunch. We don't have time to look in everyone's bags to find out what they are having. Please, please, please, remind your child what they are doing for lunch (and after school).  The lunch count is especially important because our lunches are being made off sight, at Harwood, due to our lack of kitchen use at the Warren School. Thank you so much for helping out with this.

Morning activities....

MORNING MEETING....

We reviewed the calendar this morning. We noticed the days of the week. What month it is. Counted the numbers we have been through this month and we noticed a pattern too. We read the chart and recognized that there were capital letters at the beginning of sentences and periods at the end of sentences. Then we did a "Sunrise, sunset" activity. We all start out squatting on the floor and we start counting 1, 2, 3, ...10! And spread our arms out wide like the sun has risen. Then from that place we count backwards, 10, 9, 8...1 the sun has set, and we are squatting back down. We did it together as a whole class then kids had a chance to do it by themselves. 

RECESS....

Here are a couple pictures from recess. Lots of fun by all. 

MATH....
We had lots of fun with math today.  After our sunrise and sunset activity we got cubes and dice and rolled the dice and added that many cubes to our chart.  After 5 different rolls we asked the kids what was their largest roll, what was their least amount and then we asked them to find a number of cubes on their board, for example find your set of 5 cubes.

LANGUAGE ARTS....

We read a Dr Seuss book The Berenstian's B Book . Lots of rhyming with B. We then reviewed the letters Tt, Ff, Bb and brought in a new letter Mm. Then we looked at many objects that all started with the letter M, ie..: Magnet, map, money, motorcycle, matchbox, marker, etc.  We also read a book, ABC A New Way of Seeing, which was pictures made of real objects into letters of the alphabet.
