We've certainly enjoyed this glorious Fall week! With our big buddies, we went outside and did a scavenger hunt for all kinds of Fall items! We've been learning some new digraphs this week, and having fun doing it! Ask us about our "sound tag" game. Our reading is really starting to take off! We're recognizing more and more of the little building blocks within words and this is helping us to dissect words and put them back together. In Math, we've been focusing on the partners of 10 (1+9, 2+8, 3+7...), and using some fun games to help us memorize and internalize the concept. And we had a new team challenge this week!... Can you make a marble run out of nothing but play-doh and popsicle sticks? Before the challenge began, we rehearsed how we could replace some of our negative language:
Many of us who were hesitant to get involved in the first challenges have started actually voicing our opinions. And those that have emerged as leaders are learning how to listen to our friends without taking over the entire project. In the end, everyone got full points on the board for successfully working as a TEAM, and for making marble runs that actually worked! We discovered that the secret was in the incline. After the challenge was complete, we had a lot of fun playing with the giant balls of play-doh! And on the topic of amazing creations, we levelled up in our perler bead game this week. We're beginning to figure out how to make them 3D!! How cute are these?! Bravo, Teddy! Extra photos... ...for all those "take a picture, Madame!" moments...
