We sorted and classified objects in Math and played lots of number games. It was also CRAZY HAIR DAY on Friday!

Happy Thanksgiving!

In math this week, we worked on creating combinations with different numbers to 10. We compared numbers using dominoes to find which one was greater. We also played games with 10 frames and spinners to compare numbers with our partners.

 Building a pattern to find combinations of a number

 Who has the greater number?

 Recording numbers with dominoes and finding the greater one

 Who is the first one to cover all the turkeys?

For our literacy tables, we focused on the Letter J and P and practiced all letter sounds on the computer. We also began our discussion on Thanksgiving. We read stories together and independently at the listening center. Sight words are also a priority as we continue to read and write the ones we know.

Week 11

Week 6 entailed working on ten frames in Math. Counting and making sure we could represent that number in many different ways. We also made combinations of 5 by tossing chips with two sided colors. We still need a lot of work writing our numbers.

 Count the room. Find the pumpkin ten frames and record them with the correct number.

 Practice counting and writing our numbers to 10.

Toss the Chips. How many different combinations of 5 can  you toss?

We continue to talk about trees, leaves and the weather. We observed and talked about the different kind of leaves that grow on maple, oak and beech trees. We brought a leaf in from home, observed it and make a leaf rubbing.

In Literacy we worked on the letters s and d. We read a counting book together making sure we pointed to each word read. We practiced rhyming on the computer and brainstormed words that began with these letters and counted out the syllables. We also ordered pumpkins from the largest to the smallest on a fence.

And of course, Makerspace is always so much fun!
