Another fun and busy week in our Pre-K classroom!
We focused on the letter M this week. We learned that M is a consonant, the formation and sound of M, and we did many activities surrounding the letter M.
We read the story, The Mitten this week. We focused on recall and comprehension by asking many questions about the story. The children made a mitten craft to go along with the story that is now hanging in our classroom. We continue counting forward to our 100 day celebration. Our 100 day celebration is scheduled for February 4th. We also had fun learning with monsters, the children counted monsters and made a monster craft with paint, an eye dropper and a little rubbing. We played a counting, racing game with M&M's. This was a fun and delicious way to review our counting!
We thanked God for families in religion. Each family is unique but all are full of love! Each child is sharing their special families with the class and they just love it! If you haven't brought in your family heart yet please do so this week. We are displaying our hearts in the hall for all to enjoy!
We learned all about Dr. Martin Luther King this week. We heard his dream speech and discussed how he changed the laws. We learned the word segregation, it made us so sad to hear how people were treated! We talked about how God made each one of us and loves us all. It doesn't matter what we look like on the outside but what is important is what is in the inside, our character. We discussed cruel and kind and acted out different situations and had to decide if it was cruel or kind. We are learning how important it is to be kind to others and even our little friends can show great examples of kindness. We are starting a kindness jar in our classroom and we know we will fill it so quickly!
We got some sparkle slime for our classroom and the children LOVED it! It is great to see something so simple can be so much fun!
