Character Education: Mrs. Weninger will continue with the We are PEACE book will show the kids her glitter ball and describe how our brain is like the glitter.  Sometimes our brain is calm like the settled glitter and sometimes our brains are wild like the glitter in the ball moving around. In school we need settled calm glitter to learn!

Library Day

                      PhyEd Today   

Math: Counting Objects/Writing 6
New Concept: Today we are going to be counting and matching numbers with cubes. This time we are going to play with numbers up to 6. First I am

going to pull a number card out of my bag (6). Now I am going to put 6 cubes on

my mat. I need to check that I have the right amount by touching each cube and counting them. 1, 2, 3. . Now I want to build another set so I have a matching pair. I have to be careful, Watch! Give a non-example of 1-to-1. Explain how you have to be sure they line up.

Whole Group Explore: Now we are going to play match me again. Partner 1 will take out a number and place that many cubes on their board and say, “match me!” Partner 2 will match the cubes. Then you will both check to be sure you

have a pair by laying the toothpicks down to be sure you have the same amount.

Student Application: Students will practice writing the number 6.

Students will draw a line to matching quantities.    

~We are previewing the Scholastic Book Fair this morning to see all the wonderful books that are for sale. 

~What a fabulous trip we had to the fire station! The children seemed to really enjoy seeing, hearing, and trying out some of the equipment. A special thank you to Firefighters Shane & Rob for taking the time to share their knowledge with us!
