Happy Thursday!


Morning circle time – we had our special helper of the day adding the date to our calendar, we sang our morning songs, then added one more popcorn to our 100th Day of school counting. Today we also visited Mr. Foster's Farmers Market. 






Snack – JKs were encouraged to eat a healthy snack.
French class – please visit Mme. Jessica’s blog http://mllehousja.blogspot.com/
Recess and Lunch
Language – we reviewed our phonics song for all letters learned so far. Here is the link for our weekly Jolly Phonics songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K2rxtgQpd0
This is the song for letter Q: https://youtu.be/CZ6L8EmV3gg
Then a group of students presented their Show and Tell and right after we used our workbook “Writing with Phonics” to practiced writing uppercase and lowercase Rr.















Math- JK were introduced to the 3D shapes. This is the song we learned: https://youtu.be/2cg-Uc556-Q

Then we worked in groups in order to build with 3D shapes.

Recess and Lunch/snack

Gym class – please visit Ms. V’s blog https://msvphysed.blogspot.com/

Centers -  today we had a variety of sorting stations. Sorting is such an important concept for children to understand that things are alike and different as well as that they can belong and be organized into certain groups. Getting practice with sorting at an early age is important for numerical concepts and grouping numbers and sets when they're older. This type of thinking starts them on the path of applying logical thinking to objects, mathematical concepts and every day life in general.  


Poem Practice – JKs are working hard at practicing the following when presenting their poem:

-         Projection

-         Pacing

-         Enunciation and Articulation

-         Memorization

-         Body Language

Poetry memorization builds vocabulary and comprehension. As students practice their poem presentation in class they are building presentation skills, which leads to a sense of pride, satisfaction and accomplishment. Keep up with practicing at home as well! J

Have a great evening everyone!
