Wacky Week: Day 3

Today we started our morning with ANOTHER Eric Carle book, The Grouchy Ladybug. We also read several more books about apples today, including Apples, Apples, Apples

In math, we were introduced to Monster 3. We practiced his cheer and completed a couple worksheets after practicing tracing 3s in the air and on friend's backs.
Monster Monster Number 3, How Many Claps Should There Be (clap clap clap)

In Social Studies, we discussed school workers and their role in our lives. We watched the DVD that goes along with our unit and brainstormed which people were helpers at our school. Librarian, Computer Lab Helper, Principal, Teacher, Secretary, Crossing Guard, Janitor, Lunch Lady, etc.

The students listened to a story about a little boy who was sent to look for a little red house with no windows and no doors and a star inside. The story revealed that he eventually found this when he cut open an apple and discovered the "star" inside. During choice time students were pulled individually to stamp an apple onto paper and draw a house around it.

During choice time, we also finished our paper tearing Apple Book. :)
