Colorful Eggs

Assembly: Alexa recieved this month's Citizenship Award for her excellent behavior this past month.

Activity: Since we've been working on farm animals and the sounds that they make, we created a craft that incorporates the two. Children colored and cut out a page that had a barn (with a door that folded open) and a poem (with a cut-out window). Behind this went a wheel that spins and has both pictures of animals and the sounds they make. When positioned correctly, the sound is displayed through the window and the door can be opened to reveal the animal.

Math: We continued our unit on time today, learning about the hands on a clock. The short one tells the hours. The longer one tells the minutes. On some clocks there is a third hand (usually a different color or very skinny) that tells seconds. Students used brads to created their own clocks that we will be using as we continue to work on telling time.

Literacy: After reviewing colors, students made a book titled "Colorful Eggs".. Each pages contained the prompt for a different color egg and three lines: ( __ ______ __ ).. Students filled in "I see a" and then underlined the color word and drew that color egg. Students then were able to practice reading these books to themselves and one another.
