Handwriting: Down the Slide

KinderLiteracy
Using the story, Apple for Everyone, the kids will ask/answer simple recall questions such as: Where does this story take place? What kind of book is this? What is a fact we learned about apples? etc. In addition, we will address related vocabulary (bloom, ripe, thud, dribble, rot). 

KinderMath: Sort By More than One Attribute
The lesson begins with reading, The Button Box by Margarette Reid. I will ask their thoughts on how the buttons are being sorted (size, color, shape, style, etc.) Then we will look at a pile of attribute buttons and talk about how they think we should sort them. More than likely, the kids will focus on color so I will get them to think past that. (Sort by shape, button hole amount, size, etc.) 
~Overall, I am seeing improvement with writing numbers 0-5!
