Welcome to the middle of the week!
So today we sang some great songs. Yesterday we were so busy we didn't get to sing so today we made up for it. Check out twitter since we tweeted one of our songs: Head And Shoulders. It is a different version. It is a great one! Don't miss it! :)
I read with some students today and did echo reading with them and we did some small math groups. We are working on number identification, ten frames and working with building numbers from 0 to 10. If you want to help your child at home, review numbers to ten. Get them to find numbers and tell you what they are and then count that many of an object. All the children today sturggled with 1 to 1 correspondence. This means that the children were counting objects, but were having a hard time telling how many were in the group. So practise pointing to the objects and even moving them out of the way once you counted them. It is a very difficult task for children.
We played 101 questions yesterday and today. It is a website that shows a picture and then we have to come up with as many questions as possible. We started the prompt off with "I wonder"...and wow it was amazing how well the Kinders did with this exercise. Try it with your child tonight with the following picture and see what happens.
