A Beautiful Day!

Following opening in the Gym, Ms. Shebobman and Samuel led us through the calendar routines. She presented today’s Daily Schedule and we have encouraged the children to refer to it throughout the day. At Math time the JK’s did some counting and connecting to numbers activities and the SK”s worked on their “My Day” books. A few of the children are finished their books and we will work on the covers tomorrow.

In Language Arts I read a few funny penguin poems from Antarctic  Antics.  We learned the sound of “v”. Sound Pail tomorrow for things containing the ‘v” sound anywhere in them!

Following the long recess, we talked about Friendship... the qualities that friends have and things we like to do with our friends. It is a very broad subject but the children participated well in all aspects of the discussion. I read the book called Howard B. Wigglebottom Learns about Mud and Rainbows.  From the book: “Howard learned that sometimes life gives you rainbows and sometimes you get mud. So if you find yourself headfirst in mud and you can’t change it, you still have choices. You can be unhappy about it, or make the best of it.” We sang a song from the beginning of the year called “I wanna be a friend of yours!”
