Peek In Our Week ::: Thee Buckeye Room ::: Week Of November 6, 2023

Thee Buckeye Room Bulletin

Line Time:
Dinosaurs- We traveled back in time and discovered some fascinating things about certain dinosaurs. We learned that dinosaurs no longer exist and that they are extinct. We know dinosaurs exist because scientist found their bones or fossils. From these fossil we saw that some teeth were long and sharp to tear flesh from it’s prey which belonged to meat eaters or carnivores (T Rex). Some teeth were flat for grinding plants, leaves, and branches and belonged to plant eaters or herbivores (Brachiosauras).

Did You Know:
Why Swiss Cheese Has Holes? Carbon dioxide given off by the bacteria used to make Swiss cheese creates the air bubbles in the process, resulting in those holes that we refer to in the industry as “eyes.” The size of the eyes does not have an effect on the taste of the cheese and can be controlled through temperature, storage time and acidity.

My children say Swiss Cheese smells like stinky feet. What are your thoughts on Swiss Cheese?

***She is working on consonant/vowel blends. This will help her with advanced reading.***

The key purpose of the Moveable Alphabet is **to prepare children for writing, reading, and spelling**. The child’s use of the material progresses from single words, to phrases, and eventually to stories. In this way, the Moveable Alphabet teaches children how to symbolize their own thoughts, and begin to write creatively.

She is working on the memory game where I show her a number and she goes across the room the retrieve the correct number of sticks. Memory game **incorporates movement, elements of suspense, control, and academic learning**. Look at her expression of excitement.

***She decided to “go all in” with her work on sand paper letters by taking out all of the letters.***
