The past few days with your children have been great! :) They have done a terrific job learning all the new rules for inside the classroom and for outside at recess. Some are becoming pro cycler's on the tricycle. :) Plus they get excited over everything we do!! Today's lesson on germs sounded like we were having a party. haha We discussed the spreading of germs and I showed the students how germs spread by using blue paint to touch things. Blue paint was EVERYWHERE! On tables, chairs, white boards and... people. :) I think the students really understood the lesson!! Plus our book Listen Buddy lead us into a great discussion on why listening is SUPER important. ( I received stories on falling into holes in the ground and getting hurt, to being eating by a dinosaur, to... "You just have to because Mommy says. " haha :) We ended our day with a big discussion on not playing with math tools. We
discussed how exploring may seem like playing, but it's a little
different... When you explore, you can then teach someone how to make
the item. Three students taught us how to make their items by using
position words and counting words. It was amazing! I can't wait to see
who shares tomorrow!! :)
Enjoy the slideshow below for a peak into our day and the Jack Hartmann Letter Song Video. :)
