Thee Buckeye Room Bulletin

Line Time:
Fish- We learned fish are vertebrates or they have a backbone or a spine. They are cold blooded (their body temperature changes to the temperature around them) and have slimy and scaly skin. The unique thing about fish is that some fish are born alive and some fish are born with jelly eggs. Some examples of fish are Trout, Bass, Sharks, and Swordfish. And one more important point is that fish live in water.

Did You Know?
It is physically impossible for you to lick your elbow.
This is because the average upper arm is too long for our tongues to be able to reach our elbows. Go on, try it.

Peek In The Classroom:

He is working on the Number Rods. The Number Rods introduce the child to quantity 1–10 and their corresponding number names. Through exploration with the material, the child also develops concepts in sequence of number, combinations of 10 and basic arithmetic. The material consists of 10 wooden rods, divided into units by alternating colors of red and blue, progressing in 10 equal steps.

He is working on the South American puzzle map that is found in the Cultural Subject area. Maps are used in every type of classroom to **help students memorize continents and countries**, but memorization is only one benefit. Montessori students use these maps to gain a deeper, more rich understanding of how countries fit together and their relative sizes.

***This boy traced the continent of South America, colored and labeled the countries.***

***These girls traced, colored, and labeled different animals. This activity enhances concentration and fine*** ***motor skills.***
