In our center times this week we have been practicing counting, making groups of objects, finding ways to make the numbers to 10 and writing our numbers. We have also been practicing printing our letters and listening to songs in French.
Mme introduced a new kind of center this week too. When we are done our work or for free centers we can choose to do a curiosity center. These are centers that can help us learn about things we are interested in or help us practice things we want to get better at. There are dinosaur bags, magnet bags, art bags, science bags, letter and number practice bags, finger knitting, loom bracelets, geography bags, and lots more. Mme will keep adding things as we express interest in them. We learned that these centers are not always easy. They require us to work hard and keep trying. Learning new things is fun but can sometimes be a little hard. We are really enjoying the centers.
On Friday we worked extra hard and earned a reward. We decided we wanted to do an extra craft activity this week. Mme Hawtree wondered if we could paint snow. Some of us thought we could, others though Mme Hawtree was crazy. We tried it and had a lot of fun.
We have been working on our lowercase letters. We are learning a song, drawing pictures and practicing writing words for each letter. Our letters this week were c,o,s and v. You can hear the songs bellow.
