Thee Buckeye Room Bulletin

Line Time:
Skeletal System- This week we looked at the skeletal system and if we didn’t have a skeleton we would be one messy blob on the ground (insert a flagellant sound). We learned the skull protects our brain, the rib cage protects our lungs, and the spine keeps us sitting and standing straight. We learned technical terms for our arms, leg and our digits which is a funny name called phalanges. We brought our life sized foam puzzle into our room. His name is Elvis because we learned about the pelvis and it was a cool rhyming name.

A Message From Mr. John (The Food Thief):

Did You Know?
If you chill your onions you won’t cry when you cut them…..

There’s nothing worse than chopping and onion and bursting into tears. Not because you’re sad for the onion, but because your eyes sting from a chemical reaction. A simple solution is to stick your onion in the freezer for about 15 minutes beforehand. This will prevent the acid enzymes working properly and stop you from tears! ***** P.S. It doesn’t work. I tried it and still felt like I got pepper sprayed *****

Cultural Subjects:
Your children can now count to ten in 19 languages (English, Latin, Sign Language, Spanish, German, French, Greek, Japanese, Arabic with the Lebanese dialect, Italian, Russian, Romanian, Swedish, Tagalog, Hebrew, Korean, Hungarian, Irish, Kiswahili, Welsh)

Know Your Languages (Welsh):

Enrichments (Science):

***1) Preparing for the inevitable.*** ***2) Took off his glasses to prepare more. 3) Getting wet. 4) Recooperating with much laughter in the background.***

Peek In Our Week:

**Kindergarten students** ***measuring a sprout and recording the data. We will track the progression of this flower’s growth.***

***When a new work is introduced it causes quite a stir. A warm welcome for Elvis the Pelvis***. ***Also, the students having Elvis chillaxing.***

Playing memory games is not only fun for children of all ages in the Montessori classroom, they also **provide an opportunity for developmental growth**. Memory games can improve brain functions and lead to better retention, attention, and concentration, all while lengthening focus. I show ***her a number and she walks across the room, counts the appropriate number of popsicle sticks, and returns to me. We do this for numbers from 0*** ***to 10***.

Written by Tonya Shaw

Focus Lesson:

This week we learned all about Healthy Habits. We focused on 5 main things that can keep our bodies healthy: eating healthy foods, drinking water, sleeping, exercising, and hygiene.

We continued discussing the 5 food groups daily at lunch, we always have so much fun finding our food group of the day inside of our lunch box. Ms. Tonya guided discussions on the importance of drinking water (because our bodies are made up of mostly water!), getting a good night’s sleep (so we can grow and make memories!), and exercising (it’s so important for kids these age to move their bodies for at least an hour per day!). Ms. Sam guided lessons on hygiene this week. Blossoms learned about the importance of brushing their teeth and bathing, and of course, washing their hands!

Kindergarten Lessons:

Kindergarteners continued learning about multiplication this week in Kindergarten Lesson. In Handwriting, they continued to learn how to form bump letters, focusing on v and . We’re almost done with the lowercase alphabet! In Reader’s Workshop our Blossoms practiced . And in Writer’s Workshop, our young authors continued to work on sentence structure, as well as adding transition words to their stories such as “one day”, “everday”, “next”, “then”, or “after”.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Happy Birthday to our newest 6 year old!

Enrichment Spotlight – Library with Ms. Lindsey!

Ms. Lindsey read us a book about the hospital and a silly book about bones. The bones book introduced us to the names of different bones in our body, something we’ll be learning about very soon!

A Peek into Work Time: Math

This child has mastered matching the colored bead bars to their appropriate numeral. He is now using his knowledge of the beads to practice writing his numbers, combining math and handwriting!

This child is working with the Tens Board as he is being introduced to the conventional names for the tens quantities: twenty, thirty, fourty, etc. He is using ten beads to connect quantity and symbol.

This child is working with the 6 cube chain. This work reinforces the ability to count in sequence, as well as introduces the concept of counting in multiples and skip counting.

This child is working with the addition strip board. We use this work to practice addition facts, as well as reinforcing the compostition of 10.

Outside Fun!

We love playing outside with our Aspen friends!

Our Focus Lesson: Healthy Foods & The 5 Food Groups

Our class learned all about Healthy Foods this week! We talked about how healthy foods give us energy to play, learn, and grow! We also spent some time this week talking about Healthy Foods and Sometimes Foods.

We spent time discussing each of the 5 food groups as well this week. We talked about how these food groups grow and examples of each one. We took time at lunch to find the food groups that we brought to school. But the best part of the week was preparing our own snack each day! Thank you so much to the parents that donated food for snack this week!

We started the week with Dairy Foods! We ate yogurt tubes and yummy cheese cubes!

Our second day was Grains! We did so well spreading butter onto slices of bread. Who doesn’t love bread and butter?

Wednesday was Fruits! We practiced peeling bananas, as well as cutting bananas and apple slices.

We added all of the fruits together to make fruit salad! It was our favorite snack of the week!

Thursday was Vegetables! We peeled carrots.

And enjoyed our vegetables with hummus and ranch dressing!

On the last day of the week, we learned about Proteins! We also practiced our spreading skills some more as we spread peanut butter onto crackers!

Kindergarten Lessons:

Kindergarteners learned Multiplication in Kindergarten Lesson this week. In Handwriting, they started their study on bump letters by forming the letters n and m. In Reader’s Workshop our older Blossoms practiced phonemes and isolating the middle sounds of words. And in Writer’s Workshop our authors worked on sentence structure!

Enrichment Spotlight: Science with Mr. John

There was so much giggling during this week’s science experiment! Why does a diaper hold more water than a paper towel?

A Peek At Our Week- Aspen- 01/02/23- 01/06/23 – Snowflakes and the States Of Matter!

Posted on January 9, 2023 at 5:17 pm.

Written by Kelley Laney

Welcome back Aspen families!! We hope you had an amazing winter vacation full of fun and relaxation! Ms. Lindsey and I were so happy to see everyone this week! We missed all of you! The Aspen children seemed happy to return to school and their daily classroom activities! The classroom was bustling with academic energy, enthusiasm, and smiles as everyone missed their friends and favorite activities! This week our topic was Snow and Snowflakes! Before we could investigate Snowflakes, we had to discuss the States of Matter; therefore, Aspen learned all about Solids, Liquids, and Gases. We learned that things/objects are made up of matter and matter is made up of small particles called Molecules. We further learned that Molecules behave differently in different States Of Matter! For example, the Molecules in a solid are arranged tightly packed close together allowing Solids to hold their shape. The Molecules in a liquid are packed close together but not tightly; therefore, liquids are free flowing and change shape depending on the container the occupy. The Molecules in a Gas are moving rapidly in all directions and are not packed close together. A Gas does not have a defined shape and we cannot typically see them! After discussing the above, we engaged in a follow up Practical Life Solid, Liquid, and Gas activity. The Aspen students got to use beads pretending they were Molecules and arranged them tightly, free flowing, or bouncing all over the place (this activity is pictured below). After learning about Molecules it was time to talk snow! What is Snow? How Does it form? The Aspen students are now snow experts! They learned that snow is frozen ice crystals made up of water, discovering ice is the solid form of water! Water is a liquid, and when it freezes it becomes ice! Aspen then asked the question can water be a gas? We further discovered that water can be a gas called water vapor, and there is something called a Water Cycle. The Water Cycle and temperature play a role in the formation of snow! Aspen then had to research the Water Cycle and made the realization that clouds are condensed Water Vapor and when the water vapor condenses and becomes too heavy the cloud releases the water in a liquid state. We call this liquid state rain; however, if the temperature is cold enough the liquid will turn to ice crystals and the ice crystals will stick to pollen or dust in our atmosphere. They will then form larger crystals by combining together to create a snowflake! It was at this point that Aspen realized that when we catch snowflakes on our tongue to eat, we are actually eating dust or pollen! Wow! It was a very busy week in Aspen!! To illustrate the Water Cycle, we read the book The Drop Goes Plop by Sam Godwin and then did a very special “Make It Rain” science experiment using water, shaving cream, and food coloring. Ask your child about their busy week in Aspen!

In Kindergarten Workshop, the kindergarteners explored the concept of Multiplication using the Multiplication Bead Bars. They practiced combining multiples of a number while visually experiencing this process through the manipulation of numbered beads. In Readers Workshop, the Cardinals focused on reviewing phonograms they learned prior to Winter Vacation and then learned two new phonograms: ou and ow. Cardinals then engaged in follow-up work with ou and ow. They played “What’s The Word” and “Name that Phonogram ” where we took turns figuring out how to read various words and then located phonograms within them. The Chickadees reviewed phonics and then focused on the ending sounds within a word. The Chickadees then played “What’s the Word ” by changing only the ending sounds of phonetic words. They also reviewed the sh and th phonograms! In Writers Workshop the Cardinals focused on handwriting skills of cursive lowercase letters and Chickadees focused on vowels, vowel sounds, and how to write them.

For the week of January 9, 2023 our thematic lesson for the week will be Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, and diversity. We will also explore concepts regarding this topic by doing our Rosa Parks play during line time.

Line Time:
To honor the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. we learned a bit about his life and his accomplishments. The students became actresses and actors as they recreated Rosa Parks making her stand on a bus in Montgomery Alabama. The students enjoyed playing the part of the bus driver, Rosa Parks, “the mean guy”, a police officer, Martin Luther King Jr., and passengers on the bus. We discussed our differences such as skin color, eye color, hair color, and gender. Then we discussed how we are similar. We talked about discrimination and segregation. We talked about if someone with red hair wouldn’t be allowed to do art “just because” they have red hair or if anyone who had blue eyes would have to go to a different classroom with less materials, broken crayons, or no books “just because” they have blue eyes. I had only boys fetch the chairs for the skit and brought that to the attention of the class. We had some very sad girls…. I did let the girls take the chairs back after the skit.

Below is a picture after the skit where everyone can sit where they want. The thumbs up means the students approve.

***See how Rosa and the bus driver are holding hands?***

Line Time:
We started to learn about our body and how it works. We learned about our five senses (touch, hearing, sight, smell, and taste). Did you know you can “feel” with any part of your body? Of course parents know that. Who has not stepped on a Lego in bare feet and screamed in pain? But we associate touch with our fingers (hot/cold, hard/soft, rough/smooth). We hear loud noises, quiet noises, high iand low noises, “Are we there yet?”. We need light to see and if we close our eyes we can’t see. The lights being turned on at 5 am on a Saturday morning. There are good smells like cinnamon, vanilla and bad smells like a dirty diaper and vinegar. My favorite was the taste test where we tasted sweet (sugar water), salty (salt water), sour (pure lemon juice), and bitter (unsweetened baking chocolate). The children enjoyed “most” of the tastes. Hehe!!!!

The Collage of Disgust!

***The first picture is a mad dash to the trashcan to spit out anything “yucky”!***

A Message From Mr. John (Things Are Running Smoothly):

January Birthdays/Half Birthdays:
A Montessori classroom consists of students ranging in age from three years to six years. Here is our newest three and six year old students abd some half birthdays.

Did You Know?
Animals that lay eggs do not have belly buttons.
It is where the umbilical cord attaches to the baby inside the mother’s womb. The umbilical cord provides nutrients from a mother to a baby mammal, allowing the baby to grow from a fetus to a full-grown baby ready to be born. In egg-laying animals, the baby never grows inside the mother, and therefore there is no need for the umbilical cord to form and nutrients to be passed along from mother to offspring. This means the bellybutton never forms.

Know Your Languages (Irish):

Cultural Subjects: Your children can now count to ten in 16 languages (English, Latin, Sign Language, Spanish, German, French, Greek, Japanese, Arabic in the Lebanese Dialect, Italian, Russian, Romanian, Swedish, Tagalog, Hebrew, Korean, Hungarian, Irish)

Alumni Readers:

***This former student now in the 5th grade wrote and illustrated*** ***the book she read to the class.***

***All of these people were students in Mr. John’s class in a span of 10 years*. *One of which is taller than Mr. John***!

Peek In The Classroom:

***The*** spindle box develops early counting skills and develops the association between quantity and the number symbols 0-9. Importantly, it teaches the concept of zero. The wooden box has ten numbered compartments into which the child counts the corresponding number of tactile wooden spindles.

***This student is working on the Albanese assessment which h is a test linking Montessori with traditional assesments.***

The direct purpose of the Red Rods is **to develop the child’s visual and muscular perception of length**. Secondary aims include: developing the child’s coordination of movement, assisting with balance and concentration, and providing the child with the basic language of mathematics.

***These girls are creating their own computer keyboards and computer screens***.

A Peek into the Cherry Blossom Classroom – week of 1/2/23

Posted on January 6, 2023 at 7:37 pm.

Written by Tonya Shaw

Happy New Year Blossoms! We were very excited to be back at school this week and see our friends. Our days were full of chatting and laughing together.

Focus Lesson:

This week we reviewed our classroom routines and expected behaviors. We settled back into our classroom after our long break. We reviewed how to be respectful of others and our materials within our room. We also took some time to talk all about our winter breaks! What we did, who we saw, what our favorite parts were. We even added a fireworks science experiment to our discussion about New Year’s Eve!

We added warm water, vegetable oil, and food coloring to a jar. We talked about density and molecules!

Check our how our “fireworks in a jar” exploded!

Preschool Lesson:

Ms. Sam reviewed the Geometric Cabinet with our younger Blossoms this week. They discussed polygons and quadrilaterals!

Kindergarten Lesson:

Our older Blossoms were introduced to Multiplication this week with Mr. John in Kindergarten Lesson. In Handwriting, they worked on writing words that connect using a dip connector. Reader’s Workshop and Writer’s Workshop discussed vowels, blends, and writing words and sentences!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Welcome to Our New Friend!

A Special Visitor!

The older sibling of one of our students joined us this week to read us a story. We loved having her with us, she was a great reader!

Peek into Work Time: Cultural

We were all about the map puzzles this week! The Montessori map cabinet is an important work in the classroom. Children use this material as an introduction to Geography. We begin with learning the names of the different continents. As a child becomes more comfortable with an individual map puzzle, we then introduce the child to the names of the countries within the continent. Children are encouraged to trace and label the countries within the continent, sneaking in more work for those fine motor skills!

We begin our Map Cabinet lessons with the Map of the Continents. This is a puzzle map in which each continent on the Painted Globe becomes an individual puzzle piece. The child learns the name of the continents and oceans, as well as where they are located, through the Three Period Lesson.

This student has mastered the Australia Map Puzzle. A child has mastered a Map Puzzle when they can consistently return all the pieces to the map without help. The child is then introduced to the names of the countries or territories. Then the child can trace and label the map puzzle, creating their own map and reinforcing what they have learned!

This older Kindergarten student is tracing and labeling The United States Map Puzzle. He is learning the names of a few states per day and has had lots of questions about how many hours it would take to get to different states. (We googled these answers for him!)

A Peek At Our Week: 11/28/22-12/02/22 and 12/05/22- 12/09/22- Holiday Program Rehearsal, Stage Ettiquette , and Holiday Fun!

Posted on December 14, 2022 at 3:42 am.

Written by Kelley Laney

The past two weeks in Aspen have been full of fun, holiday cheer, and preparation for our Holiday program this coming week. The Aspen children have been busy practicing their songs and choreography for our upcoming show! They have worked hard and continue to amaze us with their ability to learn their songs so quickly. The majority of our morning group lessons have centered around practicing our songs while practicing proper stage etiquette. We also discussed vocabulary words within the songs we will be singing. For example, did you know that figgy pudding isn’t actually pudding? It is a vague term for traditional sweet and savory cakes. It typically contains a creamy layer of honey, fruit, and nuts. In fact, in England, they often call desserts pudding! The Aspen parents are in for such a special treat this coming Friday. We can’t wait to perform for you!

In Kindergarten Workshop, the kindergarteners have been practicing a top secret ASL song surprise! They are eager to share this with all of you this Friday! They have also explored addition concepts and how to add large numbers, working with the hundreds, tens, and units in our Place Value system with the Golden Beads and Stamp Game. In Readers Workshop, the Cardinals have continued to explore sentence structure, focusing on the subject and the predicate within a sentence. Cardinals then symbolized sentences and explored how having these two parts of speech in a sentence gives structure to our sentences while helping them complete their entire thought! We practiced creating our own sentences while writing them on the lines. The Cardinals also focused on leaving spaces between their words, and they also engaged in follow up worksheets reading sentences and finding the missing words. They helped the sentences make sense! The Chickadees continued their lessons on phonics, worked on sight words, learned two new sight words, and received a new reader. We read the reader aloud during Readers Workshop together. The Chickadees then completed follow up work focusing on comprehension skills from their new Reader. In Writers Workshop, both groups continued to work on their books, focusing on handwriting skills, completing sentences, and finishing their whole thought (making sense of sentences)!

Many parents have had questions regarding our Holiday Program this week. I am inserting a link that will either serve as a reminder or answer any questions you may have. If you have further inquiries feel free to ask us in person as well! Here is the link!

Did You Know?
Urine used to be used as a detergent? Yuck! In the past, urine was used to wash clothes because of its ammonia content, which helped get out tough stains. Still, some people might prefer having a dirty shirt than one that stank of wee!
