Library Day

Math
New Concept: Today we are going to make some shapes. I am going to take 3 of these sticks (all the long sized sticks) and make a shape. If you know the name of this shape, raise your hand. Make a triangle. My shape has three corners. Count and touch the points. It also has three sides. Count and touch the sides. Are any of my sides curved? Trade one of your long sticks in for a shorter stick. Continue to move the sticks around while substituting long and short sticks. 

Whole Group Explore: Now you will get to make some shapes. Listen and build it:  

(After each shape is made, count the sides, count the corners, and name the shape) A triangle (3 long) (3 short) (2 long, 1 short) A rectangle (2 long, 2 short) A square (4 long) (4 short)
Student Application: Students will practice numeral formation 
                                 Students will color the shapes and count.

SMART Room Highlight: Ipad Minis
There are several apps we have chosen that work specifically on eye/hand coordination. The children don't even know they're learning while having fun!
