September is almost done and we have started a few new things in our class! Small groups have begun and some of you have noticed the list that is under the lesson plan on the Parent Board! Small groups allow us to play games and strengthen our pre-academic skills at the same time!
The first thing we did in small groups was to name them; Ms. Kira’s group is the Purple Tigers, Ms. Daisy has the Red Ducks and Ms. Audra has the Pink Flamingos!
Here are a few pictures of the things we have been doing in our small groups.
With our salt trays we are practicing our prewriting skills and the shape of the month (which is a line).
With our plants we are learning about things that are living and things that are non living. We also talk about what living things need.
With our blocks we work on our fine motor skills and our shared use of space and materials.
With our story time we learn about the parts of books as well as comprehension and further develop our interest in literacy.
We have also been enjoying the patio and the yard. Here are a few pictures of some of the fun 🤩
So much of what we do involves exploring and experiencing the school; both in the classroom and in the yard. Everyday brings a new chance to experience and share and grow together!
We also had our first chapel of the school year where we heard about how God created the world and us!
Thank you for what is shaping up to be an exciting school year!
