Thee Buckeye Bulletin

Line Time:

The Ocean:

This week we learned about the ocean (and the sea, lakes, ponds, rivers, creeks). The main thing they have in common is they all have water and water life lurks under the surface such as fish, dolphins, clams, shrimp, and even mermaids. We learned that these bodies of water are good for the environment if kept clean. They are the major producers of oxygen and I call them the lungs of the Earth.

Peek In Our Week:

The purpose of Montessori Cards and Counters is to help children understand the relationship between numbers and quantities, reinforce the number sequence, and introduce the concept of odd and even numbers. It involves using small counters to visually represent the quantity of each number, and number cards to display the corresponding numeral.

**I like the encouragement the students give each other.**

The purpose of the Montessori Pink Tower and Brown Stairs is to refine a child’s visual sense by developing their ability to discriminate differences in size. It also helps with hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and introduces early math concepts like sequencing and comparing. More importantly they learning how to work together and creating friendships.

**A pre-K student asked a kindergarten student how to write a word. The kindergarten obliged without hesitation. I LOVE the camaraderie these children have for each other.**
