Classroom: Pilgrims and Indians

This week we talked about the Pilgrims and Indians.  The students learned that the Pilgrims came from England to our country for religious freedom.  We read books about what the Pilgrims experienced during their journey on the Mayflower and once they landed at Plymouth Rock.

Kindergarten: Addition

This week the kindergarten students used the stamp game to discover that when you put two small numbers together (addends) you get a larger number (sum) and that this process is called addition.

Work Time:
Sequence Cards: This child is practicing the order in which events happen. First, the egg cracks. Second, the chick pecks his way out. Last, the chick dries its feathers.
Table Scrubbing: This child is using many motor skills while also remembering the order and sequence of each action to successfully table scrub, which naturally leads to the development of concentration.
Short 4 Bead Chain: This child is practicing counting by multiples of 4. He starts by counting the chain and labeling it (4, 8, 12, 16) then he reads the multiples.
