Which has more?

After each student examined the jar of bells and bows, I asked them, "Which Has more?" They found their name tag and placed it under bells or bows. We then counted them and saw that we had more bells than bows.

Seventh & Eighth Grade Pumpkin Patch

Since July the seventh and eighth graders have been busy growing pumpkins for our primary students. They are also given a students name to write and illustrate a fall book just for them. During our pumpkin patch visit they learned the life cycle of a pumpkin, had a picnic and storytime, and sang a fall song. We are so proud of our seventh and eighth graders for all their hard work. The children had a blast!

Matching Game

Matching is an essential skill, helping to improve a number of cognitive abilities like visual memory, short term memory, and pattern recognition.

Goldilocks and The Three Bears

OUR INVESTIGATION OF CLOTHES

This week we started our investigation of clothing. We discussed how there are many features that make them unique. Using a magnifying glass each child explored the fabrics color, texture, and pattern.

After reading and discussing the book Goldilocks and the Three Bears, we discussed how clothes are different sizes. Using three raincoats, we placed them in descending order. We also measured the length of the jackets using blocks, chains, and a tape measure.
