Today's Activities
Writer's Workshop
We reviewed the steps for how-to's - the children are becoming expert at "how to" do how-to writing! :) They had the choice of finishing a how to they had started or beginning a new one.
Math
Measurement - children used squares of paper to measure each other (on the floor) to determine if they were tall enough to ride an amusement park ride (they had to be 12 squares tall to get on the imaginary ride - they all made it! :)
We watched a Go Noodle activity which simulated a roller coaster ride!
Literacy Centers
* making words that rhyme with "hat"
*Dr. Suess listening center - "Mr. Brown Can Moo Can You?"
*Introduction to new "just right" books
Story - "Wacky Wednesday" by Dr. Suess
