This week we finished our All About Me unit. The children loved learning about the heart, lungs, brain, and bones!
While working on the number 5, we introduced tally marks by doing a Timmy Tally Mark activity.
To learn about the lungs, the children tried to blow up balloons...
and a few even succeeded!
We played a game called Rotten Apples where each child took a turn flipping a number card and, if they could identify the number, they got to keep it!
We made Bread Men out of bread, red-tinted cream cheese, and a cinnamon sprinkle for the heart!
We used two flour-filled gloved, one with popsicle sticks to represent bones and one without, to discuss the importance of having bones.
We finished our Super Systems Men (on display in the hallway!) by adding the stomach, heart, lungs, bones, and brain!
We did an S is for Snake craft where the children practiced writing their letter Ss, then glued an S on and made it into a sparkly, sequined snake!
After talking about the brain, the children decorated a brain hat with pictures of things they like to think about.
They loved wearing them!!
Next week we start our My Community unit where the children will learn about different community helpers and occupations. We will also learn about some new science tools (magnifying glasses, magnets, and scales) and how we use them. Our letter of the week next week will be Dd, our number is 6, and our sight word is "and".
Have a wonderful long weekend!
Mrs. Poyzer
