Oceans

This week our theme was “Oceans”.  We made a scuba diver, octopus & jellyfish.  We continued to work on placing the numbers 1-10 in order, rhyming, colors & shapes.  We also worked to retest any necessary skills before the end of the school year.

 

Next week our theme will continue to be “Oceans”.  We will make a starfish, ocean photo album, giant fish book and a classroom book about our favorite ocean animal.  We will continue to work on sorting, letter/sound recognition, number identification, 1:1 correspondence when counting and hand eye coordination.  The children will also have a substitute teacher in the classroom on Monday & Tuesday, as I will be proctoring the PALS test to each student.
