Coming Up Next Week
No Letter of the Week
Theme: Thanksgiving
We did it! Our marble jar is full!
We reviewed the eight letters that we learned so far. We named the letter, and said their sounds.
The children also used the balance scale to weigh gourds. First they had to find the pair of gourd shown on the worksheet. Then they predicted which gourd would weigh more. Last, they weighed the two gourds to test their prediction.
We began to work on our "3" booklets.
We read a "Big Book" called, Popcorn Science. We used the balance scale to determine which weighs more a cup of popped corn or a cup of unpopped corn kernels?
At group time on Thursday, we did a "Harvest Sink or Float." Each child selected a vegetable and predicted if it would sink or float. Then he/she put it in the water to find out what happened. Last, he/she recorded the results on a picture chart. See slide show:
